Given intensity of the wave is I=2μ0EB
Equation is homogeneous if dimension of both sides are same.
Dimension of Intensity, I = [ML0T−3]
Dimension of Electric Field, E = [MLT−3A−1]
Dimension of magnetic field, B = [ML0T−2A−1]
Dimension of μ0 = [MLT−2A−2]
Dimension of right hand side of the equation,
[MLT−2A−2][MLT−3A−1][ML0T−2A−1]=[ML0T−3]
Since, both side dimensions are same, hence equation is homogeneous.
