In a plane electromagnetic wave U_E and U_B are average energy densities of electric field and magnetic field respectively, then the correct option in the following is
Options
- AU_E= U_B 2
- BU_E=2 U_B
- CU_E=U_B
- DU_E U_B
Correct answer
C. U_E=U_B
Step-by-step solution
Energy of electromagnetic wave is equally shared between electric and magnetic fields, U_E=U_B . i.e, 1 2 ₀ E^2= 1 2 ₀ B^2
