Dimensional homogeneity

The term dimensional homogeneity means that in an equation, the dimensions of each term on both sides are equal, which means the dimensions of the left-hand side (LHS) of an equation are similar to the dimensions of the right-hand side (RHS). For a dimensionally homogeneous equation, the powers of fundamental dimensions will be identical on both sides of the equation.
