Given below are two statements: One is labeled as Assertion (A) and other is labeler as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : Time period of oscillation of a liquid drop depends on surface tension (S), if density of the liquid is  and radius of the drop is r, then

T = K ρ r 3 S 3 2  is dimensionally correct, where K is dimensionless.

Reason (R) : Using dimensional analysis we get R.H.S. having different dimension than that of time period.

In the light of above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Option 1 - <p><strong>Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)</strong></p>
Option 2 - <p><strong>Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)</strong></p>
Option 3 - <p><strong>(A) is true but (R) is false</strong></p>
Option 4 - <p><strong>(A) is false but (R) is true</strong></p>

Correct Option - 4
Detailed Solution:

T=kρr3S3/2

[T]  [ML3]1/2 [L3]1/2 [MLT2L1]34

[T] = [M1/2L32L32M34T32]

= [M14T3/2]
