The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the method of dimensional analysis and its applicability to derive certain relations, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Dimensional Analysis Dimensional analysis is a mathematical technique used to convert one set of units to another and to check the consistency of equations. It involves analyzing the dimensions (units) of physical quantities. ### Step 2: Identify Limitations of Dimensional Analysis 1. **Addition and Subtraction**: Dimensional analysis cannot be used for equations involving addition or subtraction of quantities with different dimensions. For example, you cannot add length and time. 2. **Exponential and Logarithmic Functions**: Dimensional analysis is not applicable for deriving formulas that involve exponential or logarithmic functions since these functions do not maintain dimensional consistency. 3. **Trigonometric Functions**: Similarly, dimensional analysis cannot derive relationships that involve trigonometric functions, as these functions are dimensionless. ### Step 3: Analyze the Options Given Given the limitations mentioned above, we can analyze the options provided in the question. If any of the options involve addition, subtraction, exponential, logarithmic, or trigonometric functions, they cannot be derived using dimensional analysis. ### Step 4: Conclusion Based on the analysis, if all the options involve any of the limitations stated, the conclusion would be that none of the options can be derived using dimensional analysis. ### Final Answer The correct answer is: **None of these.** ---
