General Physics Ques 15

  1. In terms of potential difference $V$, electric current $I$, permittivity $\varepsilon_0$, permeability $\mu_0$ and speed of light $c$, the dimensionally correct equations is/are

(2015 Adv.)

(a) $\mu_0 I^2=\varepsilon_0 V^2$

(b) $\varepsilon_0 I=\mu_0 V$

(c) $I=\varepsilon_0 c V$

(d) $\mu_0 c I=\varepsilon_0 V$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 15.( a, c )

Solution:

  1. (a) Energy of inductor $\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{LI}^2=\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mu_0 N^2 A}{l} I^2$

Energy of capacitor $=\frac{1}{2} C V^2=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_0 \frac{A}{d} V^2$

$\mu_0 \frac{A}{l} I^2$ and $\varepsilon_0 \frac{A}{d} V^2$ have same dimension.

So, $\mu_0 I^2$ and $\varepsilon_0 V^2$ have same dimension.

(c) $Q=C V, \frac{Q}{t}=\frac{C V}{t}$

$I=\varepsilon_0 \frac{A}{l} \frac{V}{t} \frac{A}{l t}$ have unit of speed.

So, $\quad I=\varepsilon_0 c V$
