Given below are two statements : Statement I : Electromagnetic waves are not deflected by electric and magnetic field. Statement II : The amplitude of electric field and the magnetic field in electromagnetic waves are related to each other as E 0 = μ 0 ε 0 B 0 . In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options

  1. AStatement I is true but statement II is false
  2. BBoth Statement I and Statement II are true
  3. CStatement I is false but statement II is true
  4. DBoth Statement I and Statement II are false

Correct answer

A. Statement I is true but statement II is false

Step-by-step solution

Statement-I is correct as Electromagnetic waves are neutral. Statement-II is wrong as c = E 0 B 0 ⇒ 1 μ 0 ε 0 = E 0 B 0 ⇒ E 0 = 1 μ 0 ε 0 B 0
