The correct Answer is:
To find the dimensions of the expression \((B^2 R^2 C^2)/(2\mu_0)\), where \(B\) is the magnetic field, \(R\) is resistance, \(C\) is capacitance, and \(\mu_0\) is the permeability of free space, we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Determine the dimensions of \(B\)**: - The magnetic field \(B\) can be derived from the Lorentz force law, where the force \(F = QVB\). Rearranging gives us \(B = \frac{F}{QV}\). - The dimensions of force \(F\) are \([M L T^{-2}]\). - The dimensions of charge \(Q\) are \([A T]\) (where \(A\) is current and \(T\) is time). - The dimensions of velocity \(V\) are \([L T^{-1}]\). - Therefore, the dimensions of \(B\) are: \[ [B] = \frac{[F]}{[Q][V]} = \frac{[M L T^{-2}]}{[A T][L T^{-1}]} = \frac{[M L T^{-2}]}{[A L T^{-1}]} = [M A^{-1} T^{-2}] \] 2. **Determine the dimensions of \(R\)**: - Resistance \(R\) is defined by Ohm's law \(V = IR\), or \(R = \frac{V}{I}\). - The dimensions of voltage \(V\) are \([M L^2 T^{-3} A^{-1}]\) (derived from \(V = IR\)). - The dimensions of current \(I\) are \([A]\). - Thus, the dimensions of \(R\) are: \[ [R] = \frac{[V]}{[I]} = \frac{[M L^2 T^{-3} A^{-1}]}{[A]} = [M L^2 T^{-3} A^{-2}] \] 3. **Determine the dimensions of \(C\)**: - Capacitance \(C\) is defined as \(C = \frac{Q}{V}\). - The dimensions of charge \(Q\) are \([A T]\) and voltage \(V\) has dimensions \([M L^2 T^{-3} A^{-1}]\). - Therefore, the dimensions of \(C\) are: \[ [C] = \frac{[Q]}{[V]} = \frac{[A T]}{[M L^2 T^{-3} A^{-1}]} = [M^{-1} L^{-2} T^4 A^2] \] 4. **Combine the dimensions**: - Now we can find the dimensions of \(B^2 R^2 C^2\): \[ [B^2] = [M^2 A^{-2} T^{-4}] \] \[ [R^2] = [M^2 L^4 T^{-6} A^{-4}] \] \[ [C^2] = [M^{-2} L^{-4} T^8 A^4] \] - Therefore, the combined dimensions are: \[ [B^2 R^2 C^2] = [M^2 A^{-2} T^{-4}] \cdot [M^2 L^4 T^{-6} A^{-4}] \cdot [M^{-2} L^{-4} T^8 A^4] \] - Simplifying this gives: \[ [B^2 R^2 C^2] = [M^{2+2-2} L^{4-4} T^{-4-6+8} A^{-2-4+4}] = [M^2 L^0 T^{-2} A^{-2}] = [M^2 T^{-2} A^{-2}] \] 5. **Determine the dimensions of \(\mu_0\)**: - The permeability of free space \(\mu_0\) has dimensions: \[ [\mu_0] = [M L A^{-2} T^{-2}] \] 6. **Combine everything**: - Now we can find the dimensions of \(\frac{B^2 R^2 C^2}{2\mu_0}\): \[ \left[\frac{B^2 R^2 C^2}{\mu_0}\right] = \frac{[M^2 T^{-2} A^{-2}]}{[M L A^{-2} T^{-2}]} = [M^{2-1} L^{-1} T^{0} A^{0}] = [M L^{-1}] \] ### Final Answer: The dimensions of \(\frac{B^2 R^2 C^2}{2\mu_0}\) are \([M L^{-1}]\). ---
