The correct Answer is:
To find the unit of \((CV)/(\rho \epsilon_0)\), we will analyze the units of each component in the expression step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the units of each variable 1. **Capacitance (C)**: The unit of capacitance is Farad (F). - \(1 \text{ F} = 1 \frac{\text{C}}{\text{V}}\) (Coulombs per Volt) 2. **Potential (V)**: The unit of electric potential is Volt (V). - \(1 \text{ V} = 1 \frac{\text{J}}{\text{C}} = 1 \frac{\text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2}{\text{s}^3 \cdot \text{C}}\) 3. **Specific Resistance (\(\rho\))**: The unit of specific resistance is Ohm-meter (\(\Omega \cdot m\)). - \(1 \Omega = 1 \frac{\text{V}}{\text{A}} = 1 \frac{\text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2}{\text{s}^3 \cdot \text{A}}\) 4. **Permittivity of Free Space (\(\epsilon_0\))**: The unit of permittivity is Farad per meter (F/m). - \(1 \text{ F/m} = 1 \frac{\text{C}^2}{\text{N} \cdot \text{m}^2} = 1 \frac{\text{C}^2}{\text{kg} \cdot \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^2}\) ### Step 2: Substitute the units into the expression Now we can substitute the units into the expression \((CV)/(\rho \epsilon_0)\). \[ \text{Units of } CV = \text{Units of } C \times \text{Units of } V = \text{F} \times \text{V} \] Substituting the units of Farad: \[ \text{F} = \frac{\text{C}}{\text{V}} \Rightarrow CV = \text{C} \] Thus, \[ CV = \text{C} \cdot \text{V} = \text{C} \cdot \text{V} = \text{C} \cdot \frac{\text{J}}{\text{C}} = \text{J} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the denominator \(\rho \epsilon_0\) Now, we will calculate the units of \(\rho \epsilon_0\): \[ \text{Units of } \rho \epsilon_0 = \text{Units of } \rho \times \text{Units of } \epsilon_0 = \Omega \cdot m \times \frac{\text{F}}{m} \] Substituting the units: \[ \Omega = \frac{\text{V}}{\text{A}} \Rightarrow \rho \epsilon_0 = \left(\frac{\text{V}}{\text{A}}\right) \cdot \text{F/m} = \frac{\text{V}}{\text{A}} \cdot \frac{\text{C}^2}{\text{N} \cdot \text{m}^2} \] ### Step 4: Combine the units Now, we can combine the units: \[ \text{Units of } CV = \text{J} \quad \text{and} \quad \text{Units of } \rho \epsilon_0 = \Omega \cdot m \cdot \frac{\text{F}}{m} = \Omega \cdot \text{F} \] Thus, the final units of \((CV)/(\rho \epsilon_0)\) are: \[ \frac{\text{C} \cdot \text{V}}{\rho \epsilon_0} = \frac{\text{C} \cdot \text{V}}{\Omega \cdot \text{F}} = \text{A} \] ### Conclusion The unit of \((CV)/(\rho \epsilon_0)\) is **Ampere (A)**, which corresponds to option B.
