The correct Answer is:
To find the dimensions of \((\mu_0 \epsilon_0)^{-1/2}\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Constants - \(\mu_0\) is the permeability of free space. - \(\epsilon_0\) is the permittivity of free space. ### Step 2: Write the Dimensions of \(\mu_0\) and \(\epsilon_0\) - The dimension of permeability \(\mu_0\) is given by: \[ [\mu_0] = \frac{M}{L T^2} \] where \(M\) is mass, \(L\) is length, and \(T\) is time. - The dimension of permittivity \(\epsilon_0\) is given by: \[ [\epsilon_0] = \frac{L^3 T^4}{M} \] ### Step 3: Multiply the Dimensions of \(\mu_0\) and \(\epsilon_0\) Now, we will multiply the dimensions of \(\mu_0\) and \(\epsilon_0\): \[ [\mu_0 \epsilon_0] = \left(\frac{M}{L T^2}\right) \left(\frac{L^3 T^4}{M}\right) \] ### Step 4: Simplify the Expression When we multiply these dimensions, we get: \[ [\mu_0 \epsilon_0] = \frac{M \cdot L^3 \cdot T^4}{L \cdot T^2 \cdot M} = \frac{L^3 T^4}{L T^2} = L^{3-1} T^{4-2} = L^2 T^2 \] ### Step 5: Find the Dimensions of \((\mu_0 \epsilon_0)^{-1/2}\) Now, we need to find the dimensions of \((\mu_0 \epsilon_0)^{-1/2}\): \[ [\mu_0 \epsilon_0]^{-1/2} = (L^2 T^2)^{-1/2} = L^{-1} T^{-1} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the dimensions of \((\mu_0 \epsilon_0)^{-1/2}\) are: \[ [L^{-1} T^{-1}] \]

To find the dimensions of \((\mu_0 \epsilon_0)^{-1/2}\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Constants - \(\mu_0\) is the permeability of free space. - \(\epsilon_0\) is the permittivity of free space. ### Step 2: Write the Dimensions of \(\mu_0\) and \(\epsilon_0\) - The dimension of permeability \(\mu_0\) is given by: ...
