Dimensional Analysis

Dimensional Analysis is the study of dimensions of various complex quantities and represents them in terms of simpler dimensions. 

There are two types of dimensions in Physics:

  • Primary Dimension: A primary dimension is a dimension that is independent of all other dimensions. Large dimensions are always represented in terms of primary dimensions. Mass, length, time, current, luminous intensity and temperature are primary dimensions.
  • Secondary Dimension: A secondary dimension is a dimension that is represented in terms of primary dimensions. Example: Force, work, electric field, charge, etc.

 

Step 2

d) In the given question the force is represented as

F=αρaAbvc

α is a dimensionless constant, ρ is the density, A is the area and v is the velocity.

The dimension of density ρ=ρ=ML-3

The dimension of the area A=A=L2

The dimension of the velocity v=v=LT-1

The dimension of force F=F=MLT-2

Thus we have

F=αρaAbvcMLT-2=ML-3aL2bLT-1cMLT-2=MaL-3aL2bLcT-cMLT-2=MaL-3a+2b+cT-c

Comparing both the sides we get three equations

a=1c=2-3a+2b+c=1

Substituting the value of a and c in the third equation

-3+2b+2=1b=22=1

Thus we get the force

F=αρaAbvc=αρAv2

Now to find the value of α we use the condition given in the question that F=1 kN when all the values of ρAv=1 milli. This gives

1×103 N=α×1×10-3 kgm-3×1×10-6 m2×1×10-6 m2s-2α=10310-3×10-6×10-6=1018

Thus the force is given as

    F=1018 ρAv2

 

e) The force exerted on the fluid

F=μAvl

Thus from the above expression, the coefficient of viscosity is

μ=FlAv

Taking dimensions on both the sides

μ=FlAv

This is the dimensional equation for the coefficient of viscosity. From the dimensional equation 

μ=MLT-2×LL2×LT-1=ML1+1-2-1T-2+1=ML-1T-1

This is the dimension of the coefficient of viscosity.
