The speed of an electromagnetic wave in a medium of dielectric constant 2.25 and relative permeability 4 is:

  1. A \(3 \times 10^8 m s ^{-1}\)
  2. B \(9 \times 10^8 m s ^{-1}\)
  3. C \(10^8 m s ^{-1}\)
  4. D \(1.33 \times 10^8 m s ^{-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(10^8 m s ^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(v = \frac{c}{\sqrt{\epsilon_r \mu_r}}\) \(v = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{\sqrt{2.25 \times 4}}\) \(v = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{3}\) \(v = 10^8 m s^{-1}\)
