Answer» `[c^(0)gP^(-3)]` Where k is a dimensionless constant. `:. [M^(-1)L^(3)T^(-2)]= [LT^(-1)]^(x)[LT^(-2)]^(y)[ML^(-1)T^(-2)]^(z)= [M^(z)L^(x+y-z)T^(-x-2y-2z)]` Applying PRINCIPLE of HOMOGENEITY of dimensions we get, z=- 1...(i) x+y-z= 3...(ii) -x-2y-2z= -2,..(iii) On solving (i), (ii) and (iii) we get, `x=0, y=2, z=-1 :. [G]= [c^(0)g^(2)P^(-1)]` |
