Suppose you design your system of dimensions and take velocity (V). Planck constant (h) and gravitational constant (G) as the fundamental quantities . What will be the dimensions of length (L), mass (M) and time (T) in this system ? |

Answer» Solution :We know , `[V]=[LT^(-1)]`….(1)`[h]=[ML^(2)T^(-1)]`…(2) ` [G]=[M^(-1)L^(3)T^(-2)]`….(3) Now, we have thes three three simultaneous equations and three unknown i.e., M,L and T. We just have to solve these three equations to find out the values of M,L and T in terms of V,h and G. Let us reduce these three equations in two equations and two unknowns. `(2)xx(3) "gives" hg=L^(5)T(-3)`....(4) Now we have (1) and (4) in L and T only . cubing equation (1) and dividing in by (4) will eliminate T. `(V^(3))/(hG)=(L^(3)T^(-3))/(L^(5)T^(-3))=L^(-2)"":. L^(-2)(hG)/(V^(3))` or `L=h^(1//2)G^(1//2)V^(-3//2)` Put (A) in (1) to get `V=h^(1//2)G^(1//2)V^(-3//2)T^(-1)` `:.T=h^(1//2)G^(1//2)V^(-5//2)` put (A) and (B) in (2) to get, `h=M.(h^(1//2)G^(1//2)V^(-3//2))^(2) (h^(1//2)G^(1//2)V^(-5//2))^(-1) rArr h=M.h^(1)G^(1)V^(-3) h^(-1//2)G^(-1//2)V^(-5//2)=M h^(1//2)G^(1//2)V^(-1//2)` :. `M=h^(1/2) G^(1/2) V^(1/2)` ...(C) |
