During the propogation wave in a medium

A

Electric energy density is double of the magnetic energy density

B

Electric energy density is half of the magnetic energy density

C

Electric energy equal is double of the magnetic energy density

D

Both eneric and magnetic energy densities are zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`E_(0) = CB_(0) and C = (1)/(sqrt(mu_(0) epsilon_(0)))`
Electric energy decay `= (1)/(2) epsilon_(0)E_(0)^(2) = mu E`
`Magnetic energy decay = (1)/(2) (Bo^(2))/(mu o) = mu B`
`Then mu _(E) = mu_(B)`
Energy in equally divided between electric and magnetic field
