A proposed relationship between torque τ\tau, moment of inertia II, and angular acceleration α\alpha is τ=k I αn\tau = k\,I\,\alpha^{n}, where kk is a dimensionless constant and nn is an unknown exponent. Which value of nn makes the equation dimensionally consistent? a) n=−1n=-1 b) n=2n=2 c) n=1n=1 d) n=0n=0
