Q.

In a particular system of units, a physical quantity can be expressed in terms of the electric charge , electron mass , Planck's constant , and Coulomb's constant , where is the permittivity of vacuum. In terms of these physical constants, the dimension of the magnetic field is . The value of is ______.

Solution

Write the SI dimensions of each constant: , , , , and .

Equating powers of M, L, T, and I in :

M:
L:
T:
I:

Solving: from and the other relations one obtains , , , (checking: ... using consistent algebra the system yields ).

Adding the four equations directly is the fastest route. From (i) and from (iv) . Solving (ii) and (iii) for along with (iv) and substituting back gives .

.
