# Which of the following pairs does not have same dimensions?

moment of inertia and moment of force

##### SOLUTION
Moment of force  $(\tau)$ is equal to the product of moment of inertia $(I)$ and the angular acceleration $(\alpha)$ of the rotating body.
$\therefore$       $\tau = I \alpha$
Hence  the dimensions of moment of force and moment of inertia must be different.
