${[\mathrm{F}]=\left[\mathrm{M}^{1} \mathrm{~L}^{1} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right]=100 \mathrm{~N}}$
${[\mathrm{~L}]=10 \mathrm{~m}}$
${[\mathrm{~T}]=100 \mathrm{~s}}$
Substituting values of $\mathrm{L}$ and $\mathrm{T}$ from Eqs. (ii) and (iii) in Eq. (i), $\therefore \mathrm{M} \times 10 \times(100)^{-2}=100$
$\therefore \frac{\mathrm{M} \times 10}{100 \times 100}=100$
$\therefore \mathrm{M}=10^{5} \mathrm{~kg}$

Stokes' law states that the viscous drag force $F$ experienced by a sphere of radius $a$, moving with a speed $v$ through a fluid with coefficient of viscosity $\eta$, is given by $F=6 \pi \eta a v$. If this fluid is flowing through a cylindrical pipe of radius $r$, length $l$ and pressure difference of $p$ across its two ends, then the volume of water $V$ which flows through the pipe in time $t$ can be written as $\frac{V}{t}=k\left(\frac{p}{l}\right)^a \eta^b r^c$, where $k$ is a dimensionless constant.
