1.. Find the dimensions of the gravitational constant G , Planck’s constant h , surface tension.
2. Check the dimensional correctness of the expression: T = 2π √(l / g).
3.Convert 1 joule into base SI units using dimensional analysis.
4.If force F is related to mass m, length l, and time t as F = k m^a l^b t^c and dimensions of F
are known to be [MLT⁻²], find the values of a, b, and c.
5.Show using dimensional analysis whether the equation v = √(gh) is dimensionally
consistent.
6.. If the frequency ν of a vibrating string depends on tension T, length l, and mass per unit
length μ, use dimensional analysis to find a possible relation among them.
7.Calculate the number of significant figures in the following measurements:
a) 0.0070 kg
b) 6.023 × 10²³ mol⁻¹
c) 3.200 m
D) 0.005030 g
8..If the unit of force is 100 N, unit of length is 10 m and unit of time is 100 s, what is the unit
of mass in this system of units?
15Calculate the length of the arc of a circle of radius 31.0 cm which subtends an angle of
π/6 at the centre.
9.A new system of units is proposed in which unit of mass is α kg, unit of length β m and unit
of time γ s). How much will 5J measure in this new system?
10An artificial satellite is revolving around a planet of mass M and radius R, in a circular
orbit of radius r. From Kepler’s third law about the period of a satellite around a
common central body, square of the period of revolution T is proportional to the cube of
the radius of the orbit r. Show using dimensional
11.If velocity of light c, Planck’s constant h and gravitational constant G are taken as
fundamental quantities, then express mass, length and time in terms of dimensions of
these quantities.
12.A new system of units is proposed in which unit of mass is α kg, unit of length β m and
unit of time γ s). How much will 5J measure in this new system?
13.The displacement of a progressive wave is represented by y =A sin(wt– kx), where x is
distance and / is time. Write the dimensional formula of (i) w and (ii) k
