The dimensions of intensity of wave are ...

The dimensions of intensity of wave are :

A

`[ML^(2)T^(-3)]`

B

`[ML^(0)T^(-3)]`

C

`[ML^(-2)L^(-3)]`

D

`[M^(1)L^(2)L^(3)]`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Intensity of wave
`=("energy")/("areaxxtime")=(ML^(2)T^(-2))/(L^(2)T)=[ML^(0)T^(-3)]`
Hence correct choice is `(b)`.
