Paragraph for question no. 7 to 8

In electromagnetic theory, the electric and magnetic phenomena are related to each other. Therefore, the
dimensions of electric and magnetic quantities must also be related to each other. In the questions below,
[E] and [B] stand for dimensions of electric and magnetic fields respectively, while [ E 0 ] and [ µ 0 ] stand for
dimensions of the permittivity and permeability of free space respectively. [L] and [T] are dimensions of
length and time respectively. All the quantities are given in SI units.
