Question
The frequency of vibration f of a mass m suspended from a spring of spring constant K is given by a relation of this type f =CmxKy; where C is a dimensionless quantity. The value of x and y are 
Options:
A .  x = 12, y = 12
B .  x = -12, y = - 12
C .  x = 12, y = - 12
D .  x = - 12, y = 12
Answer: Option D
:
D
By putting the dimensions of each quantity both sides we get [T1]=[M]x[MT2]y
Now comparing the dimenstions of quantities in both sides we get x+y =0 and 2y =1
x = - 12,y = 12
