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

Answer

$kT$ has dimension of energy

$\frac{\beta x ^{2}}{ kT }$ is dimensionless

$[\beta]\left[ L ^{2}\right]=\left[ ML ^{2} T ^{-2}\right]$

$[\beta]=\left[ MT ^{-2}\right]$

$\alpha^{2} \beta$ has dimensions of work

$\left[\alpha^{2}\right]\left[ MT ^{-2}\right]=\left[ ML ^{2} T ^{-2}\right]$

$[\alpha]=\left[ M ^{0} LT ^{0}\right]$
