JEE Main 2026 — 21 January, Morning Shift — Question 31

Consider a modified Bernoulli equation.

(P+ABt2)+ρg( h+Bt)+12ρ V2= constant \left(\mathrm{P}+\frac{\mathrm{A}}{\mathrm{Bt}^{2}}\right)+\rho \mathrm{g}(\mathrm{~h}+\mathrm{Bt})+\frac{1}{2} \rho \mathrm{~V}^{2}=\text { constant }

If t has the dimension of time then the dimensions of A and B are ____\_\_\_\_ , ____\_\_\_\_ respectively.

  1. Option A:

    [ML0 T−1]\left[\mathrm{ML}^{0} \mathrm{~T}^{-1}\right] and [M0LT]\left[\mathrm{M}^{0} \mathrm{LT}\right]

  2. Option B:

    [ML0 T−1]\left[\mathrm{ML}^{0} \mathrm{~T}^{-1}\right] and [M0LT−1]\left[\mathrm{M}^{0} \mathrm{LT}^{-1}\right]

    Correct
  3. Option C:

    [ML0 T−2]\left[\mathrm{ML}^{0} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right] and [M0LT−2]\left[\mathrm{M}^{0} \mathrm{LT}^{-2}\right]

  4. Option D:

    [ML0 T−2]\left[\mathrm{ML}^{0} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right] and [M0LT−1]\left[\mathrm{M}^{0} \mathrm{LT}^{-1}\right]

Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

⇒[P]=[ABt2]\Rightarrow[P]=\left[\frac{A}{B t^{2}}\right]

\Rightarrow[\mathrm{h}]=[\mathrm{Bt}] \end{gathered}$$

\Rightarrow[\mathrm{B}]=\left[\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{t}}\right]=\left[\frac{\mathrm{L}}{\mathrm{~T}}\right]=\left[\mathrm{LT}^{-1}\right]

Putting B is equation (1) $\left[\mathrm{ML}^{-1} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right]=\left[\frac{\mathrm{A}}{\mathrm{LT}^{-1} \times \mathrm{T}^{2}}\right]$ $[\mathrm{A}]=\left[\mathrm{ML}^{0} \mathrm{~T}^{-1}\right]$
