If momentum $(P)$, area $(A)$ and time $(T)$ are taken to be fundamental quantities then energy has dimensional formula

A$\left[ {P{A^{ - 1}}T} \right]$
B$\left[ {{P^2}AT} \right]$
C$\left[ {P{A^{ - 1/2}}T} \right]$
D$\left[ {P{A^{1/2}}{T^{ - 1}}} \right]$

Solution

$\mathrm{E}=\mathrm{KP}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{A}^{\mathrm{b}} \mathrm{T}^{\mathrm{c}}$
$\mathrm{ML}^{2} \mathrm{T}^{-2}=\left[\mathrm{MLT}^{-1}\right]^{\mathrm{a}}\left[\mathrm{L}^{2}\right]^{\mathrm{b}}[\mathrm{T}]^{\mathrm{c}}$
$\mathrm{ML}^{2} \mathrm{T}^{-2}=\left[\mathrm{M}^{3} \mathrm{L}^{\mathrm{a}+2 \mathrm{b}} \mathrm{T}^{-\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{c}}\right]$
$a=1 \quad a+2 b=2 \quad-2=-a+c$
                 $\mathrm{b}=1 / 2 \quad \mathrm{c}=-1$
$\mathrm{E}=\left[\mathrm{PA}^{1 / 2} \mathrm{T}^{-1}\right]$
