A physical quantity S is defined as S=E×Bμ0. where E is electric field, B is magnetic field and μ0 is the permeability of free space. The dimensions of S are the same as the dimensions of which of the following quantity/quantities?
  1. EnergyCharge×Current
  2. ForceLength×Time
  3. EnergyVolume
  4. PowerArea

Solution

Dimension of ForceLength×Time=MLT-2LT=MT-3

Dimensions of PowerArea=Force×VelocityArea=MLT-2×LT-1L2=MT-3

Dimension of Electric field E, E=MA-1LT-3

Dimensions of Magnetic field B; B=MA-1T-2

Dimension of magnetic permeability μ0; μ0=MA-2T-2L

Therefore, dimensions of S,S=EBμ0=MA-1LT-3MA-1T-2MA-2T-2L=MT-3
