In a typical combustion engine,the work done by a gas molecule is given by $W = \alpha^{2} \beta e^{\frac{-\beta x^{2}}{kT}}$,where $x$ is the displacement,$k$ is the Boltzmann constant,and $T$ is the temperature. If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are constants,the dimensions of $\alpha$ will be:

  • A
    $[MLT^{-2}]$
  • B
    $[M^{0}LT^{0}]$
  • C
    $[M^{2}LT^{-2}]$
  • D
    $[MLT^{-1}]$

In electromagnetic theory, electric and magnetic phenomena are related to each other. Therefore, the dimensions of electric and magnetic quantities must also be related. In the questions below, $[E]$ and $[B]$ stand for dimensions of electric and magnetic fields respectively, while $[\varepsilon_0]$ and $[\mu_0]$ stand for dimensions of the permittivity and permeability of free space respectively. $[L]$ and $[T]$ are dimensions of length and time respectively. All quantities are in $SI$ units.
$(1)$ The relation between $[E]$ and $[B]$ is:
$(A)$ $[E] = [B][L][T]$
$(B)$ $[E] = [B][L]^{-1}[T]$
$(C)$ $[E] = [B][L][T]^{-1}$
$(D)$ $[E] = [B][L]^{-1}[T]^{-1}$
$(2)$ The relation between $[\varepsilon_0]$ and $[\mu_0]$ is:
$(A)$ $[\mu_0] = [\varepsilon_0][L]^2[T]^{-2}$
$(B)$ $[\mu_0] = [\varepsilon_0][L]^{-2}[T]^2$
$(C)$ $[\mu_0] = [\varepsilon_0]^{-1}[L]^2[T]^{-2}$
$(D)$ $[\mu_0] = [\varepsilon_0]^{-1}[L]^{-2}[T]^2$
