An expression of energy density is given by , where are constants, is displacement, is Boltzmann constant and t is the temperature. The dimensions of will be :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
-
Given expression
Here, is energy density.
-
Dimension of energy density
Energy density energy per unit volume.
-
Use the fact that argument of sine is dimensionless
Since must have a dimensionless argument,
Therefore,
-
Dimensions of
Boltzmann constant has dimension:
Temperature has dimension .
Hence,
-
Find dimension of
Since ,
-
Now use prefactor
Since sine is dimensionless,
Therefore,
So,
-
Match with options
This corresponds to Option D.
Comparison with stored answer: Stored correct answer is D, which matches our derived answer.
