Given: m=m∘(1−v2)12
Dimension of m=M1L0T0
Dimension of m∘=M1L0T0
Dimension of v=M0L1T−1
Dimension of v2=M1L2T−2
Dimension of c=M0L1T−1
The given formula will be dimensionally coreect only when the dimension of L.H.S is the same as that of R.H.S. This is only possible when the factor, (1−v2)12 is dimensionless i.e., (1−v2) is dimensionless. This is only possible if v2 is divided by c2. Hence, the correct relation is m=m0(1−v2c2)12.
