Consider the equation `T = 2pi sqrt(l/g)` and check whether it is correct or not.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know, dimensional. Formulae of T, l and g are `[T], [L], [LT^(-2) ]` respectively.
`therefore` Dimensional formula of `sqrt((l)/( g)) = sqrt((L)/( LT^(-2) ) )= sqrt(T^(-2) ) = [T]`
Dimensional formula of left side is also `[T]`. As `2pi` is a dimensionless quantity, the dimensional formula of left hand side of the equation is equal to dimensional formula of right hand side. Hence we conclude that the given equation is a correct one.
