1.Units, Dimensions and Measurement
easy
From the equation $\tan \theta = \frac{{rg}}{{{v^2}}}$, one can obtain the angle of banking $\theta $ for a cyclist taking a curve (the symbols have their usual meanings). Then say, it is
A
Both dimensionally and numerically correct
B
Neither numerically nor dimensionally correct
C
Dimensionally correct only
D
Numerically correct only
Solution
(c) Given equation is dimensionally correct because both sides are dimensionless but numerically wrong because the correct equation is $\tan \theta = \frac{{{v^2}}}{{rg}}$.
