To explain the uses of dimensional equations, we can break down the explanation into four main points, providing an example for each case. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Checking the Correctness of a Physical Relation**: - Dimensional equations can be used to verify if a physical equation is dimensionally consistent. This means that both sides of the equation must have the same dimensions. - **Example**: Consider the equation for the period \( T \) of a simple pendulum, given by \( T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} \), where \( L \) is the length of the pendulum and \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity. - The dimensions of \( T \) are \([T]\). ...
