The equation of state of a real gas is given by $(P+\frac{a}{V^2})(V-b)=RT$,where $P, V$ and $T$ are pressure,volume and temperature respectively and $R$ is the universal gas constant. The dimensions of $\frac{a}{b^2}$ are similar to that of:

  • A
    $PV$
  • B
    $P$
  • C
    $RT$
  • D
    $R$

Why does the concept of dimension have basic importance?

The potential energy of a particle changes with distance $x$ from a fixed origin as $V = \frac{A\sqrt{x}}{x + B}$,where $A$ and $B$ are constants with appropriate dimensions. The dimensions of $AB$ are . . . . . . .

The foundations of dimensional analysis were laid down by

Stokes' law states that the viscous drag force $F$ experienced by a sphere of radius $a$,moving with a speed $v$ through a fluid with coefficient of viscosity $\eta$,is given by $F=6 \pi \eta a v$. If this fluid is flowing through a cylindrical pipe of radius $r$,length $l$ and pressure difference of $p$ across its two ends,then the volume of water $V$ which flows through the pipe in time $t$ can be written as $\frac{V}{t}=k\left(\frac{p}{l}\right)^a \eta^b r^c$,where $k$ is a dimensionless constant. Correct values of $a, b$ and $c$ are

The $SI$ unit of energy is $J = kg \, m^{2} \, s^{-2}$; that of speed $v$ is $m \, s^{-1}$ and of acceleration $a$ is $m \, s^{-2}$. Which of the formulae for kinetic energy $(K)$ given below can you rule out on the basis of dimensional arguments ($m$ stands for the mass of the body):
$(a)$ $K = m^{2} v^{3}$
$(b)$ $K = (1/2) m v^{2}$
$(c)$ $K = m a$
$(d)$ $K = (3/16) m v^{2}$
$(e)$ $K = (1/2) m v^{2} + m a$
