JEE Main 2025 — 2 April, Evening Shift — Question 52

If μ0\mu_{0} and ε0\varepsilon_{0} are the permeability and permittivity of free space, respectively, then the dimension of (1μ0ε0)\left(\frac{1}{\mu_{0} \varepsilon_{0}}\right) is

  1. Option A:

    T2/L2T^{2} / L^{2}

  2. Option B:

    L2/T2L^{2} / T^{2}

    Correct
  3. Option C:

    T2/LT^{2} / L

  4. Option D:

    L/T2L / T^{2}

Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

C=1μ0ε0C=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_{0} \varepsilon_{0}}}

μ0ε0≡1C2≡[L−2T2]\mu_{0} \varepsilon_{0} \equiv \frac{1}{C^{2}} \equiv\left[L^{-2} T^{2}\right]

∴[1μ0ε0]=L2T2\therefore\left[\frac{1}{\mu_{0} \varepsilon_{0}}\right]=\frac{L^{2}}{T^{2}}
