Question

Why do we treat air and vacuum similarly?Eg:The permittivity of air and vacuum is same

Open in App

Solution

the permittivity of air and vacuum are not same but the difference in the permittivity of air and vacuum is considered almost 0 because it is 0.006.

so, we consider their permittivity same
