Applications of Dimensional Analysis

In the equation [X+aY2][Y−b]=RT,X\left[X + \frac{a}{Y^2}\right][Y - b] = \mathrm{R}T, X is pressure, YY is volume, R\mathrm{R} is universal gas constant and TT is temperature. The physical quantity equivalent to the ratio ab\frac{a}{b} is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. [a]=[X][Y2][a] = [X][Y^2] (pressure ×\times volume2^2), [b]=[Y][b] = [Y] (volume).
  2. [a/b]=[a/b] = pressure ×\times volume =[ML2T−2]= [ML^2T^{-2}].
  3. So the answer is (b) energy.
