The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Charge \(Q = IT\), so \([Q] = [IT]\). Work \(W = ML^2T^{-2}\).
Voltage \(V = W/Q\): \([V] = [ML^2T^{-3}I^{-1}]\).
Capacitance \(C = Q/V\): \([C] = \frac{IT}{ML^2T^{-3}I^{-1}} = [M^{-1}L^{-2}T^{4}I^{2}]\).
\(\lambda = C/V\): \([\lambda] = \frac{M^{-1}L^{-2}T^{4}I^{2}}{ML^{2}T^{-3}I^{-1}} = [M^{-2}L^{-4}T^{7}I^{3}]\).
Answer: (3) \([M^{-2}L^{-4}I^{3}T^{7}]\)
