I assume that measuring unit for k is just $s^{-1}$ but I have no idea how to find an answer for B. – Lind Nov 18 '18 at 00:55

If $L$ is length in meters then $L^2$ is meters squared, but $1$ is dimensionless so this formula literally doesn't add up. Are you sure that's exactly what it said? – David K Nov 18 '18 at 02:26

I am sure, but it is probably incorrect. – Lind Nov 18 '18 at 18:10

1An error in the problem statement does appear to be likely. – David K Nov 18 '18 at 19:40
