View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
[M0L−1T3]\left[ {{\mathrm{M}^0}{\mathrm{L}^{ - 1}}{\mathrm{T}^3}} \right]
Option C ([M0L1T−3{\mathrm{M}^0}{\mathrm{L}^1}{\mathrm{T}^{ - 3}}]) is correct because it involves finding the dimensions of f from the equation S=13ft3S = \frac{1}{3}f{t^3}, where S is displacement and t is time. By rearranging the equation to solve for f and substituting the dimensions of S and t, we can find the dimensions of f.
