In a parallel universe, parallel physicists on a parallel Earth picked units of time T], mass [M] and charge [C as their basic three dimensions for their physics. Express units of length in terms of these three basic units.

Answer:


L = (M)/(C*T)

Step-by-step explanation:

In our universe the unit of current used to be defined as the current that produces a certain force per unit of length between two wires separated by a certain length. This means:


I = (F)/(l * l)

Replacing force by its definition


I = (M * (l)/(T^2))/(l^2) = (M)/(l * T^2)

And since current is charge over time


C = I * T


C = (M)/(l * T)

From this we can define length as a function of time, mass, and charge:


L = (M)/(C*T)
