The dimension of the quantity `vecExxvecB`, where `vecE` represents the electric field and `vecB` the magnetic field may be given as

A

`MT^(-3)`

B

`M^(2)LT^(-5)A^(-2)`

C

`M^(2)LT^(-3)A^(-1)`

D

`MLT^(-2)A^(-2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Electric field, `E=(F)/(q)=([MLT^(2)])/([AT][:T^(-1)])=[MLT^(-3)A^(-1)]`
Magnetic field, `(F)/(q^(0))=([MLT^(-2)])/([AT][LT^(-1)])=[MT^(-2)A^(-1)]`
`therefore` The dimensions of quantity `vecExxvecB=[MLT^(-3)A^(-1)]`
`[MT^(-2)A^(-1)]=[M^(2)LT^(-5)A^(-2)]`
