[L2]
Pressure depends on distance as P=\frac{\alpha}{\beta}exp(\frac{-\alpha z}{k\theta}) where alpha, beta are constants, z is distance, k is boltzmann's constant and theta is temperature.
The dimension of beta is?

αz/kθ is dimensionless
so α [L] / [ML2T-2]
so α = [MLT-2]
so α/β = Pressure = [ M L-1T-2]
β = [MLT-2] / [ M L-1T-2] = [L2]

@ mani
β is also constant...
constants may have units...
think abt Planck's const........Boltzman's const
