The speed of a wave produced in water is given by \(v=\lambda^a g^b \rho^c\). Where \(\lambda\), g and \(\rho\) are wavelength of wave, acceleration due to gravity and density of water respectively. The values of \(a , b\) and \(c\) respectively, are

  1. A \(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2}, 0\)
  2. B \(1,1,0\)
  3. C \(1,-1,0\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{2}, 0, \frac{1}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2}, 0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(v=\lambda^a g^b \rho^c\) using dimension formula \(\Rightarrow\left[ M ^0 L ^1 T ^{-1}\right]=\left[ L ^1\right]^{ a }\left[ L ^1 T ^{-2}\right]^{ b }\left[ M ^1 L ^{-3}\right]^{ c }\)…
