Solution
Permittivity: It is the property of every material, which measures the opposition offered against the formation of an electric field.
The permittivity of free space: The vacuum characterizes the least possible permittivity value. This is called the Permittivity of Free Space or electric constant.
The dimensional formula for permittivity of free space:
Dimensions of F
Dimensions of q
Dimensions of r
Now put the dimensional formula of all other terms:
Thus, the dimensional formula for permittivity of free space is .
