Velocity of light is equal to

A

`sqrt(epsilon_(0)mu_(0))`

B

`sqrt(epsilon_(0)//mu_(0))`

C

`epsilon_(0)//mu_(0)`

D

`sqrt((1)/(epsilon_(0)mu_(0)))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Velocity oflight ( c) = `sqrt((1)/(epsilon_(0)mu_(0))`
`=sqrt((1)/((8.85xx10^(-12))xx(1.26xx10^(-6))))~~3xx10^(8)` m/s
