An artificial satellite is revolving around a planet of mass M and radius R, in a circular orbit of radius r. From Kepler’s Third law about the period of a satellite around a common central body, square of the period of revolution T is proportional to the cube of the radius of the orbit r. Show using dimensional analysis, that

T =

where k is a dimensionless constant and g is acceleration due to gravity.

The volume of a liquid flowing out per second of a pipe of length l and radius r is written by a student as

where P is the pressure difference between the two ends of the pipe and η is coefficient of viscosity of the liquid having dimensional formula ML^-1 T^-1. Check whether the equation is dimensionally correct.

If velocity of light c, Planck’s constant h and gravitational constant G are taken as fundamental quantities then express mass, length and time in terms of dimensions of these quantities.
