MCQ
Give the SI unit of current density and its dimensional formula.
  • A
    Am-2, [A1L-2]
  • B
    Am2, [A1L2]
  • C
    Am-1, [A1L-1]
  • D
    Am1, [A1L1]

Answer

  1. Am-2, [A1L-2]

Explanation:

Current density is the amount of charge flowing per second through a unit area.

The SI unit of current density is ampere per square metre (Am-2) and its dimensions are [A1L-2].
