Dimensional formula of thrust

Thrust
[M L T−2]
Written in full: [M¹ L¹ T⁻² A⁰ K⁰]

How to derive it

Thrust = Force acting at right angles to a surface

Put in the dimensions of each part: [MLT⁻²] = [M L T⁻²].

SI unit

The SI unit of thrust is newton (N).

Same dimensions as thrust

These quantities have exactly the same dimensions, a favourite trick in JEE and NEET "which pair has the same dimensions" questions:
