Let [∈0]\left[{\in}_{0}\right] denote the dimensional formula of the permittivity of vacuum. If M = mass, L = length, T = time and A = electric current, then :

Options

  1. A\left[{∈}_{0}\right] = \left[{\text{M}}^{-1} {\text{L}}^{2} {\text{T}}^{-1} {\text{A}}^{- 2}\right]
  2. B\left[{∈}_{0}\right] = \left[{\text{M}}^{-1} {\text{L}}^{2} {\text{T}}^{-1} \text{A}\right]
  3. C\left[{∈}_{0}\right] = \left[{\text{M}}^{-1} {\text{L}}^{- 3} {\text{T}}^{2} \text{A}\right]
  4. D\left[{∈}_{0}\right] = \left[{\text{M}}^{-1} {\text{L}}^{- 3} {\text{T}}^{4} {\text{A}}^{2}\right]

Correct answer

D. \left[{∈}_{0}\right] = \left[{\text{M}}^{-1} {\text{L}}^{- 3} {\text{T}}^{4} {\text{A}}^{2}\right]

Step-by-step solution

\text{F} = \dfrac{1}{4 &pi; {&epsilon;}_{0}} \dfrac{{\text{q}}_{1} {\text{q}}_{2}}{{\text{R}}^{2}}<br/><br/><br /><br />{&epsilon;}_{0} = \dfrac{{\text{q}}_{1} {\text{q}}_{2}}{4 &pi; {\text{FR}}^{2}}<br/><br/>Hence,<br /><br />Hence,{&epsilon;}_{0} = \dfrac{{\text{C}}^{2}}{{\text{N . m}}^{2}} = \dfrac{{\left[\text{AT}\right]}^{2}}{\text{ML}{\text{T}}^{- 2} {\text{. L}}^{2}} = \left[{\text{M}}^{-1} {\text{L}}^{- 3} {\text{T}}^{4} {\text{A}}^{2}\right]
