- Energy - Energy is defined as the capacity to do some work and it is equal to E = mc2
- Here we have, m as the mass and c as the velocity of light.
- Gravitational constant - The Gravitational constant is denoted by " G " and it comes from,
⇒\(F = \frac {Gm_1 m_2}{r^2}\)
⇒\(G = \frac {F r^2}{m_1 m_2}\)
here, F is the force, m1, m2 is the two masses and r is the distance.
CALCULATIONS:
Energy, E = mc2
- Dimensional formula of energy
[E] = [M1(LT-1)2]
⇒[E] = [M1 L2 T-2] ------(1)
and \(G = \frac {F r^2}{m_1 m_2}\)
- Dimensional formula of gravitational constant
[G] = [M-1 L3 T-2] ------(2)
Divide equation (1) and (2), we have
\(\frac{{[E]}}{{[G]}} = \frac{{[{M^1}{L^2}{T^{ - 2}}]}}{{[{M^{ - 1}}{L^3}{T^{ - 2}}]}}\)
⇒ \(\left[ {\frac{E}{G}} \right]\) = [M2 L-1 T0]
Hence, correct option is (2)
