Pick an option to check your answer.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\;{\varepsilon _0}=M^{-1}L^{-3}T^4A^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As we know \(F = \frac{1}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}\frac{{{q_1}{q_2}}}{{{R^2}}} \Rightarrow {\varepsilon _0} = \frac{{{q_1}{q_2}}}{{4\pi F{R^2}}}\)
Hence \({\varepsilon _0} = \frac{{{{\left[ {AT} \right]}^2}}}{{ML{T^{ - 2}}{L^2}}} = \left[ {{M^{ -1}}{L^{ - 3}}{T^{  4}}{A^2}} \right]\)
