The correct Answer is:
To find the dimensions of the physical quantity \( X \) defined by the formula \[ X = \frac{IFv^2}{WL^3} \] we need to determine the dimensions of each variable involved: moment of inertia \( I \), force \( F \), velocity \( v \), work \( W \), and length \( L \). ### Step 1: Determine the dimensions of each variable 1. **Moment of Inertia \( I \)**: - The moment of inertia is defined as \( I = m r^2 \) where \( m \) is mass and \( r \) is the distance (length). - Thus, the dimensions of \( I \) are: \[ [I] = [M][L^2] = M L^2 \] 2. **Force \( F \)**: - Force is defined by Newton's second law \( F = ma \) where \( a \) is acceleration. - The dimensions of force are: \[ [F] = [M][L][T^{-2}] = M L T^{-2} \] 3. **Velocity \( v \)**: - Velocity is defined as distance over time. - The dimensions of velocity are: \[ [v] = \frac{[L]}{[T]} = L T^{-1} \] 4. **Work \( W \)**: - Work is defined as force times distance, \( W = F \cdot d \). - The dimensions of work are: \[ [W] = [F][L] = (M L T^{-2})[L] = M L^2 T^{-2} \] 5. **Length \( L \)**: - The dimensions of length are simply: \[ [L] = L \] ### Step 2: Substitute the dimensions into the formula for \( X \) Now, substituting the dimensions into the formula for \( X \): \[ X = \frac{IFv^2}{WL^3} \] Substituting the dimensions we found: \[ X = \frac{(M L^2)(M L T^{-2})(L T^{-1})^2}{(M L^2 T^{-2})(L^3)} \] ### Step 3: Simplify the expression Calculating \( v^2 \): \[ v^2 = (L T^{-1})^2 = L^2 T^{-2} \] Now substituting back into \( X \): \[ X = \frac{(M L^2)(M L T^{-2})(L^2 T^{-2})}{(M L^2 T^{-2})(L^3)} \] This simplifies to: \[ X = \frac{M^2 L^5 T^{-4}}{M L^5 T^{-2}} \] ### Step 4: Cancel out the common terms Now, cancel out the common terms in the numerator and denominator: \[ X = \frac{M^2 L^5 T^{-4}}{M L^5 T^{-2}} = M^{2-1} L^{5-5} T^{-4 - (-2)} = M^{1} L^{0} T^{-2} \] Thus, the dimensions of \( X \) are: \[ X = M T^{-2} \] ### Final Answer The dimensions of the physical quantity \( X \) are: \[ \boxed{M T^{-2}} \]
