If the velocity of light , universal gravitational constant and Planck's constant are chosen as fundamental quantities. The dimensions of mass in the new system is :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
- Write dimensions of the given fundamental constants
We express everything in terms of .
-
Velocity of light:
-
Gravitational constant: From Newton's law, so
-
Planck's constant:
- Assume mass can be written in terms of
Let
Substitute dimensions:
So,
Since the left side is just mass,
Therefore, equate powers:
- For :
- For :
- For :
- Solve the equations
From the third equation:
Substitute into the second equation:
Now use the first equation:
Hence,
And
- Final expression
Thus,
So the correct option is:
