Were it not already reduced, one could perform Gauss–Jordan elimination on the dimensional matrix to more easily determine the kernel. It follows that the dimensionless constant may be written: π π = T 2 M 0 L − − 1 g 1 = g T 2 / L . In fundamental terms: π π = ( t ) 2 ( m ) 0 ( ℓ ℓ ) − − 1 ( ℓ ℓ / t 2 ) 1 = 1 , which is dimensionless. Since the kernel is only defined to within a multiplicative constant, if the above dimensionless constant is raised to any arbitrary power, it will yield another equivalent dimensionless constant.
