Identify the pair whose dimensions are equal

1. torque and work
2. stress and energy
3. force and stress
4. force and work

Correct answer: torque and work

Solution

Torque and work both have dimensions of energy, as they can be expressed in terms of force multiplied by distance. This similarity in dimensional analysis makes them equal in terms of their fundamental units.
