The dimension of
is equal to that of: (
Vacuum permeability and
Vacuum permittivity)
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsC
The dimension of
can be understood as follows:
Vacuum permeability (
) and vacuum permittivity (
) relate to the properties of inductance and capacitance, respectively, in a vacuum. We start by considering the formulas for inductance
and capacitance
:
Inductance (
) is given by:

Capacitance (
) is given by:

From these, the ratio
can be expressed as
:

Taking the square root of this ratio, we have:

This simplifies further to considering the relationship between time constant (
) and resistance (
):

Thus, by taking the square root:

In conclusion, the dimension of
is equivalent to the dimension of resistance,
.
