The magnetic field in a travelling electromagnetic wave has a peak value of 20nT20 \mathrm{nT}. The peak value of electric field strength is

Options

  1. A3V/m3 \mathrm{ V} / \mathrm{m}
  2. B6V/m6 \mathrm{ V} / \mathrm{m}
  3. C9V/m9 \mathrm{ V} / \mathrm{m}
  4. D12V/m12 \mathrm{ V} / \mathrm{m}

Correct answer

B. 6V/m6 \mathrm{ V} / \mathrm{m}

Step-by-step solution

\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}_{0}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}_{0} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{C}}\left|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}_{0}\right|=\left|\mathrm{B}_{0}\right| \cdot|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{C}}|=20 \times10^{-9} \times3 \times10^{8}=6 \mathrm{ V}/ m\mathrm{m}
