Select the option in which the two words are related in the same way as are the two words in the following word-pair

Volume : Litre

  1. A.

    Pressure : Kelvin

  2. B.

    Second : Clock

  3. C.

    Angle : Radian

  4. D.

    Liquid : Pascal

Attempted by 19 students.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Concept

This is a quantity-to-measuring-unit analogy: the first word names a physical quantity, and the second word names the standard unit conventionally used to measure that quantity.

Application

Litre is the unit used to measure Volume.

Applying the same relationship: Radian is the unit used to measure Angle.

So Angle : Radian follows the same quantity-to-unit pattern as Volume : Litre.

Why the other pairs don't match

  • Pressure : Kelvin — Kelvin is the unit of temperature, not pressure; the unit for pressure is the pascal, so this pairing is mismatched.

  • Second : Clock — a clock is a measuring instrument, not a unit; second is itself already a unit (of time), so pairing it with an instrument breaks the quantity-to-unit pattern.

  • Liquid : Pascal — liquid is a state of matter, not a measurable quantity, and pascal is the unit of pressure rather than of liquid, so neither half of the pair matches the required relationship.

Hence, Angle : Radian is the correct match.

Confusion Points

  • Second is also used to measure angles, as the smallest unit in the Degree-Minute-Second notation, but its SI role is as the unit of time, not angle.

  • Radian is the SI unit of angle.
