The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the dimensions of \( B^2 l^2 C \) and express them in the form \( [M^a L^b T^c] \). Here, \( B \) is the magnetic field, \( l \) is length, and \( C \) is capacitance. ### Step 1: Determine the dimensions of each variable 1. **Magnetic Field \( B \)**: The dimension of the magnetic field \( B \) is given by: \[ [B] = [M^1 L^0 T^{-2} A^{-1}] \] where \( A \) is the unit of electric current. 2. **Length \( l \)**: The dimension of length \( l \) is: \[ [l] = [L^1] \] 3. **Capacitance \( C \)**: The dimension of capacitance \( C \) is: \[ [C] = [M^{-1} L^{-2} T^4 A^2] \] ### Step 2: Calculate the dimensions of \( B^2 l^2 C \) Now, we will calculate the dimensions of \( B^2 l^2 C \): \[ [B^2] = [B]^2 = [M^1 L^0 T^{-2} A^{-1}]^2 = [M^2 L^0 T^{-4} A^{-2}] \] \[ [l^2] = [l]^2 = [L^1]^2 = [L^2] \] \[ [C] = [M^{-1} L^{-2} T^4 A^2] \] Now, we can combine these dimensions: \[ [B^2 l^2 C] = [B^2] \cdot [l^2] \cdot [C] \] Substituting the dimensions we calculated: \[ [B^2 l^2 C] = [M^2 L^0 T^{-4} A^{-2}] \cdot [L^2] \cdot [M^{-1} L^{-2} T^4 A^2] \] ### Step 3: Combine the dimensions Now, we combine the dimensions step-by-step: 1. For mass \( M \): \[ M^{2} \cdot M^{-1} = M^{2 - 1} = M^{1} \] 2. For length \( L \): \[ L^{0} \cdot L^{2} \cdot L^{-2} = L^{0 + 2 - 2} = L^{0} \] 3. For time \( T \): \[ T^{-4} \cdot T^{4} = T^{-4 + 4} = T^{0} \] 4. For current \( A \): \[ A^{-2} \cdot A^{2} = A^{-2 + 2} = A^{0} \] Thus, the combined dimensions of \( B^2 l^2 C \) are: \[ [B^2 l^2 C] = [M^1 L^0 T^0 A^0] = [M^1] \] ### Step 4: Identify \( a, b, c \) From the combined dimensions: - \( a = 1 \) - \( b = 0 \) - \( c = 0 \) ### Step 5: Calculate \( a + b + c \) Now, we can find \( a + b + c \): \[ a + b + c = 1 + 0 + 0 = 1 \] ### Final Answer The value of \( a + b + c \) is \( 1 \). ---
