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 \(\left[ {{\varepsilon _0}} \right]\) and \(\left[ {{\mu _0}} \right]\) stand for dimensions of the permittivity and permeability of free space respectively. \(\left[ L \right]\) and \(\left[ T \right]\) are dimensions of length and time respectively. All the quantities are given in \(SI\) units.

The relation between \(\left[ {{\varepsilon _0}} \right]\) and \(\left[ {{\mu _0}} \right]\) is
A
\(\left[ {{\mu _0}} \right] = \left[ {{\varepsilon _0}} \right]{\left[ L \right]^2}{\left[ T \right]^{ - 2}}\)
B
\(\left[ {{\mu _0}} \right] = \left[ {{\varepsilon _0}} \right]{\left[ L \right]^{ - 2}}{\left[ T \right]^2}\)
C
\(\left[ {{\mu _0}} \right] = {\left[ {{\varepsilon _0}} \right]^{ - 1}}{\left[ L \right]^2}{\left[ T \right]^{ - 2}}\)
D
\(\left[ {{\mu _0}} \right] = {\left[ {{\varepsilon _0}} \right]^{ - 1}}{\left[ L \right]^{ - 2}}{\left[ T \right]^2}\)

A cube of unit volume contains $35 \times 10^7$ photons of frequency $10^{15} \mathrm{~Hz}$. If the energy of all the photons is viewed as the average energy being contained in the electromagnetic waves within the same volume, then the amplitude of the magnetic field is $\alpha \times 10^{-9} \mathrm{~T}$. Taking permeability of free space $\mu_0=4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{Tm} / \mathrm{A}$, Planck's constant $h=6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{Js}$ and $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$, the value of $\alpha$ is ____________.
