The correct Answer is:
To determine the dimensionally correct equations involving potential difference \( V \), electric current \( I \), permittivity \( \epsilon_0 \), permeability \( \mu_0 \), and speed of light \( c \), we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the dimensions of each quantity 1. **Potential Difference \( V \)**: - Dimension: \( [V] = [ML^2T^{-3}A^{-1}] \) 2. **Electric Current \( I \)**: - Dimension: \( [I] = [A] \) 3. **Permittivity \( \epsilon_0 \)**: - Dimension: \( [\epsilon_0] = [M^{-1}L^{-3}T^4A^2] \) 4. **Permeability \( \mu_0 \)**: - Dimension: \( [\mu_0] = [MLT^{-2}A^{-2}] \) 5. **Speed of Light \( c \)**: - Dimension: \( [c] = [LT^{-1}] \) ### Step 2: Analyze each option for dimensional consistency #### Option 1: \( \mu_0 I^2 = \epsilon_0 V^2 \) - Left-hand side: \[ [\mu_0 I^2] = [MLT^{-2}A^{-2}] \cdot [A^2] = [MLT^{-2}] \] - Right-hand side: \[ [\epsilon_0 V^2] = [M^{-1}L^{-3}T^4A^2] \cdot [ML^2T^{-3}A^{-1}]^2 = [M^{-1}L^{-3}T^4A^2] \cdot [M^2L^4T^{-6}A^{-2}] \] \[ = [M^{1}L^{1}T^{-2}] \] - Both sides: \[ [MLT^{-2}] = [MLT^{-2}] \] - Conclusion: **Option 1 is correct.** #### Option 2: \( \mu_0 I = \mu_0 V \) - Cancel \( \mu_0 \): \[ [I] = [V] \] - This implies: \[ [A] = [ML^2T^{-3}A^{-1}] \] - Conclusion: **Option 2 is incorrect.** #### Option 3: \( I = \epsilon_0 V \) - Left-hand side: \[ [I] = [A] \] - Right-hand side: \[ [\epsilon_0 V] = [M^{-1}L^{-3}T^4A^2] \cdot [ML^2T^{-3}A^{-1}] = [M^{0}L^{-1}T^{1}A^{1}] \] - This implies: \[ [A] \neq [M^{0}L^{-1}T^{1}A^{1}] \] - Conclusion: **Option 3 is incorrect.** #### Option 4: \( \mu_0 c I = \epsilon_0 V \) - Left-hand side: \[ [\mu_0 c I] = [MLT^{-2}A^{-2}] \cdot [LT^{-1}] \cdot [A] = [M L^2 T^{-3}] \] - Right-hand side: \[ [\epsilon_0 V] = [M^{-1}L^{-3}T^4A^2] \cdot [ML^2T^{-3}] = [M^{0}L^{-1}T^{1}A^{1}] \] - This implies: \[ [M L^2 T^{-3}] \neq [M^{0}L^{-1}T^{1}A^{1}] \] - Conclusion: **Option 4 is incorrect.** ### Final Conclusion The only dimensionally correct equation is **Option 1: \( \mu_0 I^2 = \epsilon_0 V^2 \)**. ---
