An `EM` wave radiates out wards from a dipole antenna with `E_(0)` as the amplitude of its electric filed vector. The electric field `E_(0)` which transports significant energy from the source falls off as

A

`1/(r^(3))`

B

`(1)/(r^(2))`

C

`(1)/(r)`

D

remain constant

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

From a dipole antenna, the electromagnetic waves are radiated outwards.
The amplitude of electric field vector `(E_(0))` which transports singnificant energy from the source falls off inversely as the distance `(r)` from the antenna ie., `E_(0)prop (1)/(r)`
