The electric vector vibration of an electromagnetic wave is given by `E = (50NC^(-1)) sin omega(t-(x)/(c))`, The intensity of the wave is

A

`2.3 Wm^(-2)`

B

`4.3 Wm^(-2)`

C

`3.3 Wm^(-2)`

D

`1.8 Wm^(-2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The intensity is, `I = 1/1 epsi_(0)E_(0)^(2)c`
`= 1/2 (8.85 xx 10^(-12)N-m^(2)C^(-2))xx (50 NC^(-1))^(2) xx 3 xx 10^(8)ms^(-1)`
`=3.3 wm^(-2)`
