The correct Answer is:
To find the dimensions of quantity \( B \) in the relation \( \frac{A}{B} = m \), where \( A \) is force and \( m \) is linear mass density, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the quantities involved**: - \( A \) is the force. - \( B \) is the quantity we need to find the dimensions for. - \( m \) is the linear mass density. 2. **Write down the dimensions of force \( A \)**: - The dimension of force \( A \) is given by Newton's second law, \( F = ma \) (force = mass × acceleration). - Thus, the dimension of force is: \[ [A] = [M][L][T^{-2}] \] - Where \( [M] \) is the dimension of mass, \( [L] \) is the dimension of length, and \( [T] \) is the dimension of time. 3. **Understand the dimension of linear mass density \( m \)**: - Linear mass density \( m \) is defined as mass per unit length. - Therefore, the dimension of linear mass density is: \[ [m] = \frac{[M]}{[L]} = [M][L^{-1}] \] 4. **Rearranging the equation**: - From the relation \( \frac{A}{B} = m \), we can rearrange it to find \( B \): \[ B = \frac{A}{m} \] 5. **Substituting the dimensions**: - Substitute the dimensions of \( A \) and \( m \) into the equation for \( B \): \[ [B] = \frac{[A]}{[m]} = \frac{[M][L][T^{-2}]}{[M][L^{-1}]} \] 6. **Simplifying the dimensions**: - When we simplify the expression: \[ [B] = \frac{[M][L][T^{-2}]}{[M][L^{-1}]} = [L^{2}][T^{-2}] \] - The \( [M] \) cancels out, and we are left with: \[ [B] = [L^{2}][T^{-2}] \] ### Final Result: The dimensions of \( B \) are: \[ [B] = [L^{2}][T^{-2}] \]
