The speed of light in a material medium is given by :

  1. A \( (\mu\epsilon)^{-1/2} \)
  2. B \( (\mu_o\epsilon_o)^{1/2} \)
  3. C \( (\mu_o\epsilon_o)^{-1/2} \)
  4. D \( (\mu\epsilon)^{1/2} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \( (\mu\epsilon)^{-1/2} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The speed of light in a material medium is determined by its permittivity ( () and permeability \((\mu)\) according to the formula \(v=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu e}}\). Mathematically, this is expressed as \((\mu)^{-1 / 2}\), whereas \(\left(\mu_0 \epsilon_0\right)^{-1 / 2}\)…
