If the speed of light c(=3xx10^(8) m//s)...

If the speed of light `c(=3xx10^(8) m//s)`, Planck's contant `h(=6.6xx10^(-34) J-s)` and gravitational constant `G(=6.67xx10^(-11)MKS" units")` are chosen as the fundamental quantities, find out the dimensions and value of units of (a) mass, and (b) time in this system.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`Q_(m)=(ch//G)^(1//2) ~ 10^(-7) kg`,
`Q_(t)=(Gh//c^(5))^(1//2)~ 10^(-42) s`

`Q=f(a, c, h)`
`[M]=[M^(-1)L^(3)T^(-2)]^(x)[LT^(-1)]^(y)[ML^(2)T^(-1)]^(z)`
Equating the exponents of similar quantities
`-x+z=1`
`3x+y+2z=0`
`-2x-y-z=0`
`x=-1/2" "," "y=1/2" "," "z=1/2`
`Q = ((cn)/a)^(1//2)`
