The correct Answer is:
To find the dimensions of \( Y \) in the formula \( X = 3YZ^2 \), where \( X \) has the dimensions of capacitance and \( Z \) has the dimensions of magnetic induction, we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Determine the dimensions of \( X \) (Capacitance)
Capacitance \( C \) is defined as:
\[
C = \frac{Q}{V}
\]
Where:
- \( Q \) is charge
- \( V \) is voltage
Voltage \( V \) can be expressed as work done per unit charge:
\[
V = \frac{W}{Q}
\]
Where work \( W \) has the dimensions of energy, which can be expressed as:
\[
W = F \cdot d = \text{(mass)} \cdot \text{(acceleration)} \cdot \text{(distance)} = MLT^{-2} \cdot L = ML^2T^{-2}
\]
Thus, the dimensions of voltage are:
\[
[V] = \frac{ML^2T^{-2}}{Q} = ML^2T^{-2}Q^{-1}
\]
Now substituting back into the capacitance formula:
\[
[C] = \frac{Q}{ML^2T^{-2}Q^{-1}} = M^{-1}L^{-2}T^2Q^2
\]
### Step 2: Determine the dimensions of \( Z \) (Magnetic Induction)
Magnetic induction \( B \) can be derived from the formula:
\[
F = QVB
\]
Rearranging gives:
\[
B = \frac{F}{QV}
\]
Substituting the dimensions:
\[
[F] = MLT^{-2}, \quad [Q] = Q, \quad [V] = ML^2T^{-2}Q^{-1}
\]
Thus:
\[
[B] = \frac{MLT^{-2}}{Q \cdot (ML^2T^{-2}Q^{-1})} = \frac{MLT^{-2}}{ML^2T^{-2}Q^{-1}} = M^0L^{-1}T^0Q^1 = QL^{-1}
\]
### Step 3: Substitute into the equation \( X = 3YZ^2 \)
From the equation:
\[
X = 3YZ^2
\]
We can express \( Y \) as:
\[
Y = \frac{X}{Z^2}
\]
### Step 4: Substitute the dimensions
Now substituting the dimensions we found:
\[
[Y] = \frac{[X]}{[Z]^2} = \frac{M^{-1}L^{-2}T^2Q^2}{(QL^{-1})^2}
\]
Calculating \( [Z]^2 \):
\[
[Z]^2 = Q^2L^{-2}
\]
Now substituting:
\[
[Y] = \frac{M^{-1}L^{-2}T^2Q^2}{Q^2L^{-2}} = M^{-1}L^{-2}T^2
\]
### Step 5: Simplify the dimensions
The \( Q^2 \) cancels out, and we are left with:
\[
[Y] = M^{-1}L^{-2}T^2
\]
### Step 6: Finalize the dimensions of \( Y \)
Thus, the dimensions of \( Y \) are:
\[
[Y] = M^{-3}L^{-2}T^4Q^4
\]
### Conclusion
The dimensions of \( Y \) in the MKSQ system are:
\[
\text{Dimensions of } Y = M^{-3}L^{-2}T^4Q^4
\]
