If μ_0 , e and h represent the permeability of free space,...
If , and represent the permeability of free space, elementary charge and Planck's constant respectively, then the dimensional formula of is :
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
First, write the dimensional formulas for each physical quantity:
Permeability of free space (): From the force per unit length between parallel currents , we get
Elementary charge (): From ,
Planck's constant (): From ,
Now, substitute these into the given expression :
\left[\dfrac{\mu_0 e^2}{h}\right] = \dfrac{[\text{M}\text{L}\text{T}^{-2}\text{A}^{-2}] \times [\text{A}\text{T}]^2}{[\text{M}\text{L}^2\text{T}^{-1}]}
\left[\dfrac{\mu_0 e^2}{h}\right] = \dfrac{[\text{M}\text{L}]}{[\text{M}\text{L}^2\text{T}^{-1}]}
Answer:
Permeability of free space (): From the force per unit length between parallel currents , we get
Elementary charge (): From ,
Planck's constant (): From ,
Now, substitute these into the given expression :
\left[\dfrac{\mu_0 e^2}{h}\right] = \dfrac{[\text{M}\text{L}\text{T}^{-2}\text{A}^{-2}] \times [\text{A}\text{T}]^2}{[\text{M}\text{L}^2\text{T}^{-1}]}
\left[\dfrac{\mu_0 e^2}{h}\right] = \dfrac{[\text{M}\text{L}]}{[\text{M}\text{L}^2\text{T}^{-1}]}
