The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution **(1) Write Gauss' law for magnetism in the form of Maxwell's equation.** Gauss' law for magnetism states that the total magnetic flux through a closed surface is zero. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{S} = 0 \] Where: - \(\oint\) denotes a closed surface integral, - \(\mathbf{B}\) is the magnetic field, - \(d\mathbf{S}\) is a differential area vector on the closed surface. This equation indicates that there are no magnetic monopoles; magnetic field lines are always closed loops. In the context of Maxwell's equations, Gauss' law for magnetism can also be represented in differential form as: \[ \nabla \cdot \mathbf{B} = 0 \] This indicates that the divergence of the magnetic field \(\mathbf{B}\) is zero, reinforcing the idea that magnetic monopoles do not exist. **(2) Write the value of \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}}\)** From electromagnetic theory, particularly from Maxwell's equations, we know that the speed of light \(c\) in a vacuum is given by the relationship: \[ c = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}} \] Where: - \(\mu_0\) is the permeability of free space, - \(\epsilon_0\) is the permittivity of free space. Thus, we can express: \[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}} = c \] The speed of light in a vacuum is approximately: \[ c \approx 3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s} \] ### Final Answers 1. Gauss' law for magnetism in Maxwell's equation form: \(\nabla \cdot \mathbf{B} = 0\) or \(\oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{S} = 0\). 2. \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}} = 3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}\). ---
