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,the square of the period of revolution $T$ is proportional to the cube of the radius of the orbit $r$. Show using dimensional analysis that $T = \frac{k}{R}\sqrt{\frac{r^3}{g}}$,where $k$ is a dimensionless constant and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity.

$A$ beaker contains a fluid of density $\rho \, kg/m^3$,specific heat $S \, J/kg \, ^\circ C$,and viscosity $\eta$. The beaker is filled up to height $h$. To estimate the rate of heat transfer per unit area $(Q/A)$ by convection when the beaker is placed on a hot plate,a student proposes that it should depend on $\eta$,$\left( \frac{S\Delta \theta}{h} \right)$,and $\left( \frac{1}{\rho g} \right)$,where $\Delta \theta$ (in $^\circ C$) is the temperature difference between the bottom and top of the fluid. In that situation,the correct option for $(Q/A)$ is:

Even if a physical quantity depends upon three quantities,out of which two are dimensionally same,then the formula cannot be derived by the method of dimensions. This statement

If the time period $t$ of the oscillation of a drop of liquid of density $d$,radius $r$,vibrating under surface tension $s$ is given by the formula $t = \sqrt{r^{2b} s^c d^{a/2}}$. It is observed that the time period is directly proportional to $\sqrt{\frac{d}{s}}$. The value of $b$ should therefore be
