Why constants...

Question

Why constants like gravitational constant are not dimensionless but constants like 2,3 are dimensionless

Open in App

Solution

Because these constants are derived from certain equations in order to have balance in value of equation as well as to have dimensional equity.
Such constants won't be dimensionless as numbers

Hope this helps
