NEET Physics Electromagnetic Waves MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

If μ₀ = permeability of free space & ε₀ = permittivity of free space. Find the value of μ₀ε₀.

A

1/9 × 10⁻¹⁶

B

9 × 10¹⁶

C

3 × 10⁸

D

1/3 × 10⁻⁸

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The speed of light in vacuum is given by c = 1/√(μ₀ε₀). Therefore, μ₀ε₀ = 1/c² = 1/(3 × 10⁸)² = 1/9 × 10¹⁶.
