Experiments reveal that the velocity `v` of water waves may depend on their wavelength `lambda`, density of water `rho`, and acceleration due to gravity `g`. Establish a possible relation between `v and lambda , g, rho`.

A

`upsilon^2 = k lambda^(-1) g^(-1) d^(-1)`

B

`upsilon^2 = k lambda g`

C

`upsilon^2 = k lambda dg`

D

`upsilon^2 = k lambda^3 g^(-1) d^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
(b)

`k lambda g= L (LT^(-2)) = L^2 T^(-2) = (LT^(-1))^2 = L^2 T^(-2) = (LT^(-1))^2 = upsilon^2`
