A highly advanced alien civilization uses a unit of mass called a 'glorp' and a unit of length called a 'blarp'. Their fundamental unit of time is the 'zorp'. They discover a fundamental law of physics relating force (F), mass (m), length (l), and time (t) expressed as , where K is a dimensionless constant.

A student attempts to derive the formula for the period of a simple pendulum using dimensional analysis. They correctly identify the relevant variables as length (L), mass (m), and gravitational acceleration (g). Which of the following represents a fundamental limitation they will encounter?
Inability to determine the numerical constant in the formula.
Dimensional analysis cannot handle the trigonometric functions involved in the derivation.
Mass (m) is not a relevant variable for the period of a simple pendulum, making the analysis invalid.
Dimensional analysis can only be used for linear relationships between variables.
Dimensional analysis is used to check the validity of an equation relating the speed of sound (v) in a gas to its pressure (P) and density (). Which limitation prevents dimensional analysis from distinguishing between and ?
It cannot determine dimensionless constants.
It cannot handle fractional exponents.
It assumes a linear relationship between variables.
It fails when more than three variables are involved.
A physicist uses dimensional analysis to derive an expression for the energy (E) of a particle based on its mass (m), velocity (v), and Planck's constant (h). They arrive at . Why is this result incomplete?
Dimensional analysis cannot account for dimensionless quantities like the fine-structure constant, which might be involved in a more complex relationship.
Planck's constant is not relevant for the energy of a classical particle, invalidating the analysis.
Dimensional analysis cannot handle situations involving both mass and velocity.
The correct expression involves a logarithmic relationship, which dimensional analysis cannot capture.
