The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of the dimensions of Planck's constant (h) and the moment of inertia (I). Let's break down the steps: ### Step 1: Identify the dimensions of Planck's constant (h) Planck's constant relates energy (E) and frequency (ν) through the equation: \[ E = hν \] From this, we can express Planck's constant as: \[ h = \frac{E}{ν} \] The dimension of energy (E) is given by: \[ [E] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \] And the dimension of frequency (ν) is: \[ [ν] = [T^{-1}] \] Thus, the dimensions of Planck's constant can be calculated as follows: \[ [h] = \frac{[E]}{[ν]} = \frac{[M][L^2][T^{-2}]}{[T^{-1}]} = [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \cdot [T] = [M][L^2][T^{-1}] \] ### Step 2: Identify the dimensions of moment of inertia (I) The moment of inertia (I) is defined as: \[ I = m r^2 \] Where: - \( m \) is mass with dimension \([M]\) - \( r \) is distance with dimension \([L]\) Thus, the dimensions of moment of inertia are: \[ [I] = [M][L^2] \] ### Step 3: Find the ratio of the dimensions of Planck's constant to the moment of inertia Now we can find the ratio: \[ \frac{[h]}{[I]} = \frac{[M][L^2][T^{-1}]}{[M][L^2]} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the ratio When we simplify the ratio: \[ \frac{[h]}{[I]} = \frac{[M][L^2][T^{-1}]}{[M][L^2]} = [T^{-1}] \] ### Step 5: Interpret the result The dimension \([T^{-1}]\) corresponds to frequency, as frequency is defined as the reciprocal of time. ### Final Answer Thus, the ratio of the dimensions of Planck's constant and that of the moment of inertia is the dimension of frequency.
