The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the dimensions of the constants \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) in the given velocity equation \( v = at + \frac{b}{t + c} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the dimensions of velocity \( v \):** - The dimension of velocity \( v \) is \([L T^{-1}]\), where \( L \) represents length and \( T \) represents time. 2. **Determine the dimensions of \( a \):** - The term \( at \) must have the same dimensions as velocity \( v \). - Given \( v = at \), we have: \[ [v] = [at] \] \[ [L T^{-1}] = [a][T] \] - Solving for the dimension of \( a \): \[ [a] = \frac{[L T^{-1}]}{[T]} = [L T^{-2}] \] 3. **Determine the dimensions of \( c \):** - The term \( t + c \) implies that \( c \) must have the same dimensions as \( t \). - Since \( t \) represents time, the dimension of \( t \) is \([T]\). - Therefore, the dimension of \( c \) is: \[ [c] = [T] \] 4. **Determine the dimensions of \( b \):** - The term \(\frac{b}{t + c}\) must have the same dimensions as velocity \( v \). - Given \( v = \frac{b}{t + c} \), we have: \[ [v] = \left[\frac{b}{t + c}\right] \] \[ [L T^{-1}] = \left[\frac{b}{T}\right] \] - Solving for the dimension of \( b \): \[ [b] = [L T^{-1}][T] = [L] \] ### Final Dimensions: - The dimension of \( a \) is \([L T^{-2}]\). - The dimension of \( b \) is \([L]\). - The dimension of \( c \) is \([T]\). ### Answer: The dimensions of \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) are respectively: \[ [a] = [L T^{-2}], \quad [b] = [L], \quad [c] = [T] \]
