The correct Answer is:
To determine which combinations of inductance (L), capacitance (C), and resistance (R) have dimensions of frequency, we need to analyze the dimensions of each quantity and how they relate to frequency. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Dimensions of L, C, and R**: - Inductance (L) has the dimension of \( [L] = \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-2}\text{A}^{-2} \). - Capacitance (C) has the dimension of \( [C] = \text{M}^{-1}\text{L}^{-2}\text{T}^4\text{A}^2 \). - Resistance (R) has the dimension of \( [R] = \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-3}\text{A}^{-2} \). 2. **Finding the Dimension of Frequency**: - Frequency (f) has the dimension of \( [f] = \text{T}^{-1} \). 3. **Analyzing the Combinations**: - **Combination 1: \( \frac{R}{L} \)**: - The dimension of \( R \) is \( \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-3}\text{A}^{-2} \). - The dimension of \( L \) is \( \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-2}\text{A}^{-2} \). - Therefore, \( \frac{R}{L} = \frac{\text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-3}\text{A}^{-2}}{\text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-2}\text{A}^{-2}} = \text{T}^{-1} \). - This has the dimension of frequency. - **Combination 2: \( \frac{1}{RC} \)**: - The dimension of \( R \) is \( \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-3}\text{A}^{-2} \). - The dimension of \( C \) is \( \text{M}^{-1}\text{L}^{-2}\text{T}^4\text{A}^2 \). - Therefore, \( RC = \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-3}\text{A}^{-2} \times \text{M}^{-1}\text{L}^{-2}\text{T}^4\text{A}^2 = \text{T}^{-1} \). - Thus, \( \frac{1}{RC} \) has the dimension of frequency. - **Combination 3: \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}} \)**: - The dimension of \( LC \) is \( \text{ML}^2\text{T}^{-2}\text{A}^{-2} \times \text{M}^{-1}\text{L}^{-2}\text{T}^4\text{A}^2 = \text{T}^2 \). - Therefore, \( \sqrt{LC} \) has the dimension of \( \text{T} \). - Thus, \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}} \) has the dimension of frequency. 4. **Conclusion**: - All combinations \( \frac{R}{L} \), \( \frac{1}{RC} \), and \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}} \) have dimensions of frequency. ### Final Answer: The combinations that have dimensions of frequency are: 1. \( \frac{R}{L} \) 2. \( \frac{1}{RC} \) 3. \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}} \)
