To prove that the equation F = (_0 I_1 I_2)/(2a) is homogeneous using base SI units, we must show that the dimensions of the Left Hand Side (LHS) are equal to the dimensions of the Right Hand Side (RHS). Given definitions: • F: Force • _0: Permeability of a vacuum • I_1, I_2: Electric current • a: Distance • 2: A dimensionless constant Note: The standard formula for the force per unit length between two parallel current-carrying wires is (F)/(L) = (_0 I_1 I_2)/(2 a).
