A plane electromagnetic wave of frequency `20 MHz` travels through a space along x-direction. If the electric field vector at a certain point in space is `6 Vm^(-1)`,then what is the magnetic field vector at that point?

A

`2 xx 10^(-8) T`

B

`1/2 xx 10^(-8) T`

C

`2T`

D

`1/2 T`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The magnetic field, `B = (E)/(c)`, where, `c = 3 xx 10^(8)ms^(-1)`
`rArr B = (6)/(3 xx 10^(8)) = 2 xx 10^(-8) T`
