Applications of Dimensional Analysis

Consider two physical quantities AA and BB related to each other as E=B−x2AtE = \frac{B - x^2}{At} where E,xE, x and tt have dimensions of energy, length and time respectively. The dimension of ABAB is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. BB is subtracted from x2x^2: [B]=[L2][B] = [L^2].
  2. [E]=[L2]/([A][T])⇒[A]=[L2]/([ML2T−2][T])=[M−1T][E] = [L^2]/([A][T]) \Rightarrow [A] = [L^2]/([ML^2T^{-2}][T]) = [M^{-1}T].
  3. [AB]=[L2M−1T1][AB] = [L^2M^{-1}T^1].
  4. So the answer is (b).
