Whether a given relation / formula is correct or not can be checked on the basis of the principle of homogeneity of dimensions. According to this principle, only that formula is correct, in which the dimensions of the various terms on one side of the relation are equal to the respective dimensions of these terms on the other side of the relation. With the help of the comprehension given above, choose the most appropriate alternative for each of the following questions : In the same equation, the dimensional formula of a isA. `[M^(-1) L^0 T^2]`B. `[ML^0 T^2]`C. `[ML^(-1) T^(-2)]`D. `[M^(-1) L^1 T^(-2)]`

1.	Whether a given relation / formula is correct or not can be checked on the basis of the principle of homogeneity of dimensions. According to this principle, only that formula is correct, in which the dimensions of the various terms on one side of the relation are equal to the respective dimensions of these terms on the other side of the relation. With the help of the comprehension given above, choose the most appropriate alternative for each of the following questions : In the same equation, the dimensional formula of a isA. `[M^(-1) L^0 T^2]`B. `[ML^0 T^2]`C. `[ML^(-1) T^(-2)]`D. `[M^(-1) L^1 T^(-2)]`
Answer» Correct Answer - (a) From the given relation, `a =(b-x^2)/(Pt) = (L^2)/([mL^2 T^(-3)])xxT = [M^(-1) L^0 T^2]`
