A

$[{M^0}{L^2}{T^0}]$

B

$[{M^1}{L^2}{T^1}]$

C

$[{M^1}{L^0}{T^{ - 1}}]$

D

$[{M^0}{L^2}{T^{ - 1}}]$

In the relation $P = \frac{\alpha }{\beta }{e^{ - \frac{{\alpha Z}}{{k\theta }}}}$ $P$ is pressure, $Z$ is the distance, $k$ is Boltzmann constant and $\theta$ is the temperature. The dimensional formula of $\beta$ will be

In given equation, $\frac{{\alpha z}}{{k\theta }}$ should be dimensionless

$\therefore \alpha = \frac{{k\theta }}{z} \Rightarrow [\alpha ] = \frac{{[M{L^2}{T^{ - 2}}{K^{ - 1}} \times K]}}{{[L]}} = [ML{T^{ - 2}}]$

and $P = \frac{\alpha }{{ \beta }} \Rightarrow [\beta ] = \left[ {\frac{\alpha }{p}} \right] = \frac{{[ML{T^{ - 2}}]}}{{[M{L^{ - 1}}{T^{ - 2}}]}} = [{M^0}{L^2}{T^0}]$.
