you mean, we have to check is dimensionally correct or not . right ?
okay, first of all, we identify what is G , M, R and v .
G is gravitational constant.so, unit of G = Nm²/Kg²
and dimension of G = [M^-1L^3T^-2]
M is mass so, unit of M = kg
and dimension of M = [M]
R is radius so, unit of R = m
and dimension of R = [L]
v is velocity so, unit of v = m/s
and dimension of v = [LT^-1]
now, LHS = dimension of v = [LT^-1]
RHS = dimension of √{2GM/R}
= {dimension of G × dimension of M/dimension of R}½
= {[M^-1L^3T^-2][M]/[L]}½
= [LT^-1]
hence, LHS = RHS
so, formula is dimensionally correct.
