In the following ‘I’ refers to current and other symbols have their usual meaning. Choose the option that corresponds to the dimensions of electrical conductivity :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A ML −- 3 T −- 3 I2
  • B M −- 1 L3 T3 I
  • C M −- 1 L −- 3 T3 I2
  • D M −- 1 L −- 3 T3 I

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

We know. resistivity ( ρ\rho ) = RAL{{RA} \over L}

and conductivity = 1ρ{1 \over \rho } = 1RA{1 \over {RA}}

As   R = VI{V \over {\rm I}}

∴\therefore    conductivity = LIVA{{L{\rm I}} \over {VA}}

Also  V = ωq{\omega \over q} = ωit{\omega \over {it}} = [ML2T−2][I][T]{{\left[ {M{L^2}{T^{ - 2}}} \right]} \over {\left[ {\rm I} \right]\left[ T \right]}} = [ML2T−3I−1]\left[ {M{L^2}{T^{ - 3}}{{\rm I}^{ - 1}}} \right]

∴\therefore    Conductivity = [L][I][ML2T−3I−1][L2]{{\left[ {\rm{L}} \right]\left[ {\rm I} \right]} \over {\left[ {M{L^2}{T^{ - 3}}{{\rm{I}}^{ - 1}}} \right]\left[ {{L^2}} \right]}}

=    [M−1L−3T3I2]\left[ {{M^{ - 1}}{L^{ - 3}}{T^3}{{\rm I}^2}} \right]
