The correct Answer is:
To find the dimensions of the ratio \(\frac{\mu}{\varepsilon}\) in terms of resistance \(R\) and time \(T\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the dimensions of permittivity \(\varepsilon\) and permeability \(\mu\). 1. **Permittivity (\(\varepsilon\))**: The dimensions of permittivity are given by: \[ \varepsilon = M^{-1} L^{-3} T^{4} A^{2} \] 2. **Permeability (\(\mu\))**: The dimensions of permeability are given by: \[ \mu = M L T^{-2} A^{-2} \] ### Step 2: Set up the ratio \(\frac{\mu}{\varepsilon}\). Now, we can express the ratio \(\frac{\mu}{\varepsilon}\): \[ \frac{\mu}{\varepsilon} = \frac{M L T^{-2} A^{-2}}{M^{-1} L^{-3} T^{4} A^{2}} \] ### Step 3: Simplify the ratio. When we simplify the ratio, we will divide the dimensions of \(\mu\) by the dimensions of \(\varepsilon\): \[ \frac{\mu}{\varepsilon} = \frac{M L T^{-2} A^{-2}}{M^{-1} L^{-3} T^{4} A^{2}} = M^{1 - (-1)} L^{1 - (-3)} T^{-2 - 4} A^{-2 - 2} \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{\mu}{\varepsilon} = M^{2} L^{4} T^{-6} A^{-4} \] ### Step 4: Express the dimensions in terms of resistance \(R\) and time \(T\). The dimension of resistance \(R\) is given by: \[ R = M L^{2} T^{-3} A^{-2} \] Now, we need to express \(R^2\): \[ R^2 = (M L^{2} T^{-3} A^{-2})^2 = M^{2} L^{4} T^{-6} A^{-4} \] ### Step 5: Relate \(\frac{\mu}{\varepsilon}\) to \(R^2\). From our calculations, we see that: \[ \frac{\mu}{\varepsilon} = R^2 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the dimension of the ratio \(\frac{\mu}{\varepsilon}\) in terms of resistance \(R\) and time \(T\) is: \[ \frac{\mu}{\varepsilon} = R^2 \]
