The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the dimensions of \( \frac{h}{e} \) (where \( h \) is Planck's constant and \( e \) is the electronic charge), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Dimension of Planck's Constant \( h \) Planck's constant \( h \) can be expressed in terms of energy and frequency. The formula is: \[ h = E \cdot t \] where \( E \) is energy and \( t \) is time. The dimension of energy \( E \) is given by: \[ [E] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}] \] Thus, the dimension of \( h \) is: \[ [h] = [E][t] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}][T] = [M][L^2][T^{-1}] \] ### Step 2: Determine the Dimension of Electric Charge \( e \) The electric charge \( e \) can be defined in terms of current \( I \) and time \( t \): \[ e = I \cdot t \] The dimension of current \( I \) is: \[ [I] = [A] \] Thus, the dimension of electric charge \( e \) is: \[ [e] = [I][t] = [A][T] \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Dimension of \( \frac{h}{e} \) Now that we have the dimensions of \( h \) and \( e \), we can calculate the dimension of \( \frac{h}{e} \): \[ \frac{h}{e} = \frac{[M][L^2][T^{-1}]}{[A][T]} = [M][L^2][T^{-1}][A^{-1}] \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{h}{e} = [M][L^2][T^{-2}][A^{-1}] \] ### Step 4: Compare with Given Quantities Now we need to compare this dimension with the dimensions of the given quantities: 1. **Magnetic Field**: \[ [B] = [M][L^0][T^{-2}][A^{-1}] \] 2. **Electric Flux**: \[ [\Phi_E] = [M][L^3][T^{-3}][A^{-1}] \] 3. **Electric Field**: \[ [E] = [M][L][T^{-3}][A^{-1}] \] 4. **Magnetic Flux**: \[ [\Phi_B] = [M][L^2][T^{-2}][A^{-1}] \] ### Conclusion The dimension \( [M][L^2][T^{-2}][A^{-1}] \) of \( \frac{h}{e} \) matches with the dimension of magnetic flux \( [\Phi_B] \). Thus, the final answer is: \[ \text{The dimensions of } \frac{h}{e} \text{ are the same as that of magnetic flux.} \] ---
