Prerna writes the relation that shows the extent of contraction of a rod as: $ L = L_0 \bigg( 1- \large\frac{1}{c^2} \bigg)^{\large\frac{1}{2}}$ Where, $c \rightarrow $ Speed of light, $L_0$ = Actual length, $L$ = Apparent length Her sister Pooja tells her that this formula is dimensionally incorrect. To make this relationship dimensionally correct, Prerna should
