The unit of intensity of a wave is `W/(m^(2))`? What are dimensions of intensity of wave?

A

`[MT^(-3)]`

B

`[AML^(0)T^(-2)]`

C

`[M^(0)L^(-1)T^(-2)]`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) Unit `=W/(m^(2))=J/(sm^(2))`
`:.` [Intensity of wave ] `=([ML^(2)T^(-2)])/([TL^(2)])=[MT^(-3)]`
