The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct order of dimensions of mass increases for the given quantities (Velocity, Power, and Gravitational Constant), we will analyze the dimensions of each quantity step by step. ### Step 1: Determine the dimension of Velocity - Velocity is defined as displacement per unit time. - The dimension of displacement (length) is denoted as \( L \) and time is denoted as \( T \). - Therefore, the dimension of velocity is: \[ [\text{Velocity}] = \frac{L}{T} = L T^{-1} \] ### Step 2: Determine the dimension of Power - Power is defined as work done per unit time. - The dimension of work is given by force times distance. The dimension of force is \( M L T^{-2} \) (from Newton's second law), and distance has the dimension \( L \). - Thus, the dimension of work is: \[ [\text{Work}] = [\text{Force}] \times [\text{Distance}] = (M L T^{-2}) \times L = M L^2 T^{-2} \] - Now, since power is work done per unit time, we have: \[ [\text{Power}] = \frac{[\text{Work}]}{[\text{Time}]} = \frac{M L^2 T^{-2}}{T} = M L^2 T^{-3} \] ### Step 3: Determine the dimension of Gravitational Constant - The gravitational constant \( G \) can be derived from Newton's law of gravitation, which states that the gravitational force \( F \) between two masses \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) separated by a distance \( r \) is given by: \[ F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2} \] - Rearranging this gives: \[ G = \frac{F r^2}{m_1 m_2} \] - The dimension of force \( F \) is \( M L T^{-2} \), and the dimension of \( r^2 \) is \( L^2 \). The masses \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) both have the dimension \( M \). - Therefore, the dimension of \( G \) is: \[ [G] = \frac{M L T^{-2} \cdot L^2}{M^2} = M^{-1} L^3 T^{-2} \] ### Step 4: Compare the dimensions Now we have the dimensions for each quantity: - Velocity: \( [V] = L T^{-1} \) (mass dimension = \( M^0 \)) - Power: \( [P] = M L^2 T^{-3} \) (mass dimension = \( M^1 \)) - Gravitational Constant: \( [G] = M^{-1} L^3 T^{-2} \) (mass dimension = \( M^{-1} \)) ### Step 5: Order the dimensions of mass Now we can order them based on the dimension of mass: 1. Gravitational Constant \( G \) has the lowest mass dimension (\( M^{-1} \)). 2. Velocity \( V \) has a mass dimension of \( M^0 \). 3. Power \( P \) has the highest mass dimension (\( M^1 \)). Thus, the correct order of the dimensions of mass increases is: \[ G < V < P \] ### Final Answer The correct order of dimensions of mass increases is: **(C) Gravitational Constant < (A) Velocity < (B) Power** ---
