The correct Answer is:
To find the relation between the physical quantities \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) given their units, we will express \( x \) in terms of \( y \) and \( z \) using the method of dimensional analysis. ### Step 1: Write down the units of the quantities - The unit of \( x \) is \( g \, cm^2 \, s^{-5} \) - The unit of \( y \) is \( g \, s^{-1} \) - The unit of \( z \) is \( cm \, s^{-2} \) ### Step 2: Assume a relationship We assume that \( x \) can be expressed in terms of \( y \) and \( z \) as: \[ x = y^a \cdot z^b \] where \( a \) and \( b \) are the powers we need to determine. ### Step 3: Write the units for the right-hand side Substituting the units of \( y \) and \( z \) into the equation: \[ x = (g \, s^{-1})^a \cdot (cm \, s^{-2})^b \] This simplifies to: \[ x = g^a \cdot cm^b \cdot s^{-a - 2b} \] ### Step 4: Equate the units Now we equate the units from both sides: - For \( g \): On the left side, we have \( 1 \) (from \( g^{1} \)), and on the right side, we have \( a \). Therefore: \[ 1 = a \quad \text{(1)} \] - For \( cm \): On the left side, we have \( 2 \) (from \( cm^2 \)), and on the right side, we have \( b \). Therefore: \[ 2 = b \quad \text{(2)} \] - For \( s \): On the left side, we have \( -5 \) (from \( s^{-5} \)), and on the right side, we have \( -a - 2b \). Therefore: \[ -5 = -a - 2b \quad \text{(3)} \] ### Step 5: Substitute values from equations (1) and (2) into equation (3) Substituting \( a = 1 \) and \( b = 2 \) into equation (3): \[ -5 = -1 - 2(2) \] This simplifies to: \[ -5 = -1 - 4 \] \[ -5 = -5 \quad \text{(True)} \] ### Step 6: Write the final relationship Since we have found \( a = 1 \) and \( b = 2 \), we can express \( x \) in terms of \( y \) and \( z \): \[ x = y^1 \cdot z^2 \] Thus, the final relation is: \[ x = y \cdot z^2 \] ### Conclusion The relation between \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) is: \[ x = y \cdot z^2 \]
