The dimensional formula of coefficient of viscosity is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The dimensional formula of coefficient of viscosity is
A. [ML⁻¹T⁻¹]
B. [ML⁻²T]
C. [M⁰LT⁻¹]
D. [MLT⁻¹]
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Viscosity η = Force/(Area × velocity gradient). Force [MLT⁻²], area [L²], velocity gradient [T⁻¹]. So η = [MLT⁻²]/([L²][T⁻¹]) = [ML⁻¹T⁻¹]. Often asked.

Question #2
Myopia correction uses:
A. Convex lens
B. Bifocal lens
C. Cylindrical lens
D. Concave lens

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Myopia (nearsightedness): far point reduced; corrected by concave (diverging) lens to shift image to retina. Hypermetropia uses convex lens. Memory tip: 'Myopia = near-sighted ⇒ concave lens; Hyper = far-sighted ⇒ convex'. Vision defect correction frequently tested in competitive exams to assess application knowledge.

Question #3
The mirror used as rear-view mirror in vehicles is
A. Concave mirror
B. Parabolic mirror
C. Plane mirror
D. Convex mirror

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Convex mirror gives wider field of view, always forms virtual, erect, diminished image. Allows driver to see larger area. Concave can magnify but field narrow. Plane gives normal view but limited field.
