  • question_answer
    Dimensions of \[\frac{1}{{{\mu }_{0}}\,{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\], where symbols have their usual meaning, are                       [AIEEE 2003]

    A) \[[{{L}^{-1}}T]\]

    B) \[[{{L}^{2}}{{T}^{2}}]\]

    C) \[[{{L}^{2}}{{T}^{-2}}]\]

    D) \[[L{{T}^{-1}}]\]  

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c]  As we know that formula for velocity of EM-wave in a medium of permittivity \[{{E}_{0}}\] (i.e., free space) is
                \[v=\frac{1}{\sqrt{{{\mu }_{0}}{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}}\]
             \[\therefore \]         \[{{v}^{2}}=\frac{1}{{{\mu }_{0}}{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}={{[L{{T}^{-1}}]}^{2}}\]
    \[\therefore \]      \[\frac{1}{{{\mu }_{0}}{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}=[{{L}^{2}}{{T}^{-2}}]\]
