If E and B denote electric and magnetic ...

If `E` and `B` denote electric and magnetic fields respectively, which of the following is dimensionless?

A

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

B

`mu_(0)epsilon_(0)(E)/(B)`

C

`mu_(0)epsilon_(0)((B)/(E))^(2)`

D

`(E)/(epsilon_(0))(mu_(0))/(B)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Speed of light, `c=(1)/(sqrt(mu_(0)epsilon_(0)))`
Also, `(E)/(B)=c`. Therefore, `sqrt(mu_(0)epsilon_(0))(E)/(B)` is dimensionless.
