The correct Answer is:
To find the dimensional formula of \( b \) in the equation \( v = \frac{b}{t} + ct^2 + dt^3 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the equation The equation given is: \[ v = \frac{b}{t} + ct^2 + dt^3 \] where \( v \) is the velocity of the body, \( b \) is a constant, \( c \) and \( d \) are also constants, and \( t \) is time. ### Step 2: Identify the dimensions We know that: - The dimension of velocity \( v \) is given by: \[ [v] = [L^1 T^{-1}] \] where \( L \) is the dimension of length and \( T \) is the dimension of time. ### Step 3: Analyze each term in the equation 1. **Term \( \frac{b}{t} \)**: - The dimension of time \( t \) is: \[ [t] = [T^1] \] - Therefore, the dimension of \( \frac{b}{t} \) can be expressed as: \[ \left[\frac{b}{t}\right] = \frac{[b]}{[T^1]} = [b][T^{-1}] \] 2. **Term \( ct^2 \)**: - The dimension of \( ct^2 \) is: \[ [ct^2] = [c][T^2] \] - Since \( ct^2 \) must also have the dimension of velocity, we can equate: \[ [c][T^2] = [L^1 T^{-1}] \] 3. **Term \( dt^3 \)**: - The dimension of \( dt^3 \) is: \[ [dt^3] = [d][T^3] \] - Similarly, we can equate: \[ [d][T^3] = [L^1 T^{-1}] \] ### Step 4: Equate dimensions Since all terms on the right side of the equation must have the same dimensions as \( v \), we can set the dimensions of \( \frac{b}{t} \) equal to the dimensions of \( v \): \[ [b][T^{-1}] = [L^1 T^{-1}] \] ### Step 5: Solve for the dimension of \( b \) From the equation above, we can isolate \( [b] \): \[ [b] = [L^1 T^{-1}] \cdot [T^1] = [L^1] \] Thus, the dimensional formula of \( b \) is: \[ [b] = [L^1] \] ### Final Answer The dimensional formula of \( b \) is: \[ [L] \]

To find the dimensional formula of \( b \) in the equation \( v = \frac{b}{t} + ct^2 + dt^3 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the equation The equation given is: \[ v = \frac{b}{t} + ct^2 + dt^3 \] where \( v \) is the velocity of the body, \( b \) is a constant, \( c \) and \( d \) are also constants, and \( t \) is time. ...
