D

1

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Planck's constant , `h = E^(a)L^(b)I^(c )`(a,b,c- constants)
According to the principle of homogeneity of dimensions,
`h = [ML^(2)T^(-1)], E = [ML^(2)T^(-2)], L = [ML^(2)T^(-1)], G = [M^(-1)L^(3)T^(-2)]`
On substituing the values of h,E,L and G in equation,
`[ML^(2)T^(-1)] = [ML^(2)T^(-2)]^(a)[ML^(2)T^(-1)]^(b)[M^(-1)L^(3)T^(-2)]^(c)`
`M = M^(a+b-c) implies a+b-c = 1` ...(1)
`L^(2) = L^(2a+2b+3c) implies 2a+2b+3c = 2` ...(2)
`T^(-1) = T^(-2a-b-2c) implies 2a+b+2c = 1` ...(3)
On solving equations (1),(2) and (3), we get,c = 0
