  • A
    Velocity.
  • B
    Area.
  • C

Given the pressure formula $P = FK$,where $F$ is force,find the dimensional formula of $K$.

$A$ wave pulse can travel along a tense string like a violin string. $A$ series of experiments showed that the wave velocity $V$ of a pulse depends on the following quantities: the tension $T$ of the string,the cross-sectional area $A$ of the string,and the density $\rho$ (mass per unit volume) of the string. Obtain an expression for $V$ in terms of $T$,$A$,and $\rho$ using dimensional analysis.

The volume of a liquid flowing out per second of a pipe of length $l$ and radius $r$ is written by a student as $V = \frac{\pi p r^4}{8 \eta l}$,where $p$ is the pressure difference between the two ends of the pipe and $\eta$ is the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid having the dimensional formula $[M^1 L^{-1} T^{-1}]$. Check whether the equation is dimensionally correct.

The density of a material in the $CGS$ system of units is $4\,g/cm^3$. In a system of units in which the unit of length is $10\,cm$ and the unit of mass is $100\,g$,the value of the density of the material will be:
