Let dimension formula of energy will be

$E = A^{a} T^{b} P^{c}$
$P = M^{1} L^{1} T^{- 1}$
$A = L^{2}$
$T = T^{1}$
$M^{1} L^{2} T^{- 2} = M^{C} L^{2 a + c} T^{b - c}$
by comparison $C = 1$ $. . . . . . . . . (1)$
$2 a + c = 2$ $. . . . . . (2)$
$b - c = - 2$ $. . . . . . . . (3)$
$c = 1, a = 1 / 2, b = - 1$
$E = A^{1 / 2} T^{- 1} P^{1}$
