Correct answer: D

  1. Write dimensions of the given electrical quantities

    • Resistance RRR: [R]=[V][I]=ML2T−3I−2[R] = \frac{[V]}{[I]} = M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-2}[R]=[I][V]​=ML2T−3I−2

    • Capacitance CCC: C=QVC = \frac{Q}{V}C=VQ​ Since [Q]=IT[Q] = IT[Q]=IT, [C]=ITML2T−3I−1=M−1L−2T4I2[C] = \frac{IT}{M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-1}} = M^{-1}L^{-2}T^4 I^2[C]=ML2T−3I−1IT​=M−1L−2T4I2

    • Inductance LLL: From V=L dIdtV = L\,\dfrac{dI}{dt}V=LdtdI​, [L]=[V] [T][I]=ML2T−2I−2[L] = \frac{[V]\,[T]}{[I]} = M L^2 T^{-2} I^{-2}[L]=[I][V][T]​=ML2T−2I−2

  2. Check each option

    Option A: RCRCRC

    [RC]=[R][C][RC] = [R][C][RC]=[R][C] =(ML2T−3I−2)(M−1L−2T4I2)=T= \left(M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-2}\right)\left(M^{-1}L^{-2}T^4 I^2\right) = T=(ML2T−3I−2)(M−1L−2T4I2)=T So, RCRCRC has the dimension of time.

    Option B: LR\dfrac{L}{R}RL​

    [LR]=ML2T−2I−2ML2T−3I−2=T\left[\frac{L}{R}\right] = \frac{M L^2 T^{-2} I^{-2}}{M L^2 T^{-3} I^{-2}} = T[RL​]=ML2T−3I−2ML2T−2I−2​=T So, LR\dfrac{L}{R}RL​ has the dimension of time.

    Option C: LC\sqrt{LC}LC​

    [LC]=(ML2T−2I−2)(M−1L−2T4I2)=T2[LC] = \left(M L^2 T^{-2} I^{-2}\right)\left(M^{-1}L^{-2}T^4 I^2\right)=T^2[LC]=(ML2T−2I−2)(M−1L−2T4I2)=T2 Therefore, [LC]=T[\sqrt{LC}] = T[LC​]=T So, LC\sqrt{LC}LC​ also has the dimension of time.

    Option D: LC\dfrac{L}{C}CL​

    [LC]=ML2T−2I−2M−1L−2T4I2=M2L4T−6I−4\left[\frac{L}{C}\right] = \frac{M L^2 T^{-2} I^{-2}}{M^{-1}L^{-2}T^4 I^2} = M^2 L^4 T^{-6} I^{-4}[CL​]=M−1L−2T4I2ML2T−2I−2​=M2L4T−6I−4 This is not the dimension of time.

  3. Conclusion

    The quantity that does not have the dimension of time is: LC\boxed{\frac{L}{C}}CL​​

  4. Comparison with stored answer

    Stored correct answer: DDD

    Our derived answer is also DDD, so they agree.
