NEET2011PhysicsElectromagnetic WavesActual
The electric and the magnetic field, associated with an electromagnetic wave, propagating along the +z -axis, can be represented by
Options
- A[ E =E₀ k , B =B₀ i ]
- B[ E =E₀ j , B =B₀ j ]
- C[ E =E₀ j , B =B₀ k ]
- D[ E =E₀ i , B =B₀ j ]
Correct answer
D. [ E =E₀ i , B =B₀ j ]
Step-by-step solution
= E B =E₀ i +B₀ j =E₀ B₀ k E B points in the direction of wave propagation.
