Correct answer: C
To solve this problem, we need to determine the dimensional formula for each physical quantity in List I and then match it with the corresponding formula in List II.
P. Boltzmann Constant ()
- The Boltzmann constant relates the average kinetic energy () of particles in a gas to the absolute temperature (). The formula is given by:
- Rearranging for , we get (the constant is dimensionless):
- The dimensional formula for energy () is .

- Substituting these into the equation for :
- This matches with option 4 in List II.
Q. Coefficient of viscosity ()
- The coefficient of viscosity is defined by Newton's law of viscosity for the viscous force () between two layers of a fluid: where is the area and is the velocity gradient.
- Rearranging for :
- The dimensional formulas for the quantities on the right are:
- Force ():
- Area ():
- Velocity gradient ():
- Substituting these into the equation for :
- This matches with option 2 in List II.
R. Planck Constant ()
- The Planck constant relates the energy () of a photon to its frequency (). The formula is:
