What will be the dimensions of the ratio of electric intensity of the electric field `E` to the magnetic induction `B` of the magnetic field in case of electromagnetic wave propagation ?

A

same as that of acceleration

B

same as that of velocity

C

same as that of force

D

same as that of energy

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

It `E` is the electric intensity and `B` is the magnetic induction, then
`x=(E)/(B)=(F//q)/(B)`
`=(MLT^(-2))/([MT^(-2)A^(-1)][AT])=LT^(-1)=` velocity
`:.(b)` is the correct choice.
