The velocity of electromagnetic radiatior in a medium of permittivity `epsilon_(0)` and permeability `mu_(0)` is given by

A

`sqrt( (epsilon_0)/(mu_0) )`

B

`sqrt( mu_(0) epsilon_(0) )`

C

`(1)/( sqrt( mu_(0) epsilon_(0) ) )`

D

`sqrt( (mu_0)/( epsilon_0) ) `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Velocity of electromagnetic radiation in the velocity of light c., i.e.,
`(1)/( sqrt( mu_(0) epsilon_(0) ) )`
Where `mu_0` is the permeability and `epsilon_(0)` is the permeability in free space.
