Assuming that the mass m of the largest stone that can be moved by a flowing river depends upon the velocity `upsilon,` of water, its density `rho` and acceleration due to gravity g, then m is directly proportional toA. `v^(3)`B. `v^(4)`C. `v^(5)`D. `v^(6)`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
`mpropv^(a)p^(b)g^(c)`. Writing the dimensions on both sides
`[M]=[LT^(-1)]^(a)[ML^(-3)][LT^(-2)]^(c)`
`[M]=[M^(b)L^(a)-^(3b+c)T^(-a-2c)]`
`:. b=1`
`a-3b+c=0implies-a-2c=0`Solving these, we get
`a=6 `
Hence, `mpropv^(6)`
