The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Concept: To determine a physical quantity, dimensional analysis is used. \[ [M^aL^bT^cI^d] \]

Step 1: Write dimensions of each quantity.
Mass: \[ [m]=M \] Velocity: \[ [c]=LT^{-1} \] Charge: \[ [e]=IT \] Magnetic field: \[ [B]=MT^{-2}I^{-1} \]

Step 2: Substitute dimensions.
\[ \left[\frac{mc}{Be}\right] = \frac{(M)(LT^{-1})}{(MT^{-2}I^{-1})(IT)} \] \[ = \frac{MLT^{-1}}{MT^{-1}} \] \[ =L \] Thus dimensions correspond to \[ \boxed{\text{Length}} \] Hence correct option is \[ \boxed{(C)} \]
