The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the intensity and wavelength of the electromagnetic wave given by the equation \( E = 800 \sin(10^9 t - kx) \) V/m. ### Step 1: Identify the parameters from the wave equation The given wave equation is in the form \( E = E_0 \sin(\omega t - kx) \), where: - \( E_0 = 800 \) V/m (the amplitude of the electric field) - \( \omega = 10^9 \) rad/s (the angular frequency) ### Step 2: Calculate the wavelength (\( \lambda \)) The relationship between the angular frequency (\( \omega \)) and the wavelength (\( \lambda \)) is given by: \[ \lambda = \frac{c}{\nu} \] where \( \nu = \frac{\omega}{2\pi} \) is the frequency and \( c \) is the speed of light (\( c \approx 3 \times 10^8 \) m/s). First, calculate the frequency (\( \nu \)): \[ \nu = \frac{\omega}{2\pi} = \frac{10^9}{2\pi} \] Now, substitute \( \nu \) into the wavelength formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{c}{\nu} = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{\frac{10^9}{2\pi}} = \frac{3 \times 10^8 \cdot 2\pi}{10^9} \] This simplifies to: \[ \lambda = \frac{6\pi}{10} = 0.6\pi \text{ meters} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the intensity (\( I \)) The intensity of an electromagnetic wave is given by the formula: \[ I = \frac{E_0^2}{2 \mu_0 c} \] where \( \mu_0 \) (the permeability of free space) is approximately \( 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A} \). Substituting the values: \[ I = \frac{800^2}{2 \cdot (4\pi \times 10^{-7}) \cdot (3 \times 10^8)} \] Calculating \( 800^2 \): \[ 800^2 = 640000 \] Now substitute this into the intensity formula: \[ I = \frac{640000}{2 \cdot (4\pi \times 10^{-7}) \cdot (3 \times 10^8)} \] Calculating the denominator: \[ 2 \cdot (4\pi \times 10^{-7}) \cdot (3 \times 10^8) = 24\pi \times 10^{-7} \times 10^8 = 24\pi \times 10^{-1} = 2.4\pi \] Thus, we have: \[ I = \frac{640000}{2.4\pi} \] Calculating the final intensity: \[ I \approx \frac{640000}{7.54} \approx 84800 \text{ W/m}^2 \] ### Final Answers: - The intensity of the electromagnetic wave is approximately \( 84800 \, \text{W/m}^2 \). - The wavelength of the wave is \( 0.6\pi \, \text{meters} \).
