Hii dear,
# PROOF-
Suppose,
P = E.I^2.m^-5.G^-2
Dimensions of P will be given by formula,
[P] = [EI^2M^-5G^-2]
We know,
[E] = [ML^2T^-2]
[G] = [M^-1L^3T-2]
[I] = [ML^2T^-1]
Putting values in eqn.(1),
[P] = [ML^2T^-2][ML^2T^-1]^2[M^-5][M^-1L^3T^-2]^-2
[P] = [ML^2T^-2][M^2L^4T^-2][M^-5][M^2L^-6T^4]
[P] = [M^(1+2-5+2)L(2+4-6)T(-2-2+4)]
[P] = [M^0L^0T^0]
Comparing LHS=RHS,
[P] = null.
Hence, P is dimensionless quantity.
Hope that helps you.
