A plane electromagnetic wave propagating...

A plane electromagnetic wave propagating in the x-direction has wavelength of `60` mm. The electric field is in the y-direction and its maximum magnitude is `33 V//m^(-1)`.The equation for the electric field as function of x and t is:

A

`11 sin pi (t - x//c)`

B

`33 sin pi xx 10^(10) (t - x//c)`

C

`33 sin pi (t - x//c)`

D

`11 sin pi xx 10^(10) (t - x//c)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`omega = 2pi v = (2 pi c)/(lambda) = (2pi xx 3 xx 10^(8))/(60 xx 10^(-3)) = 10^(10) pi ` rad/s
`E_(y) = E_(0) sin omega (t - (x)/(c ) ) = 33 sin pi xx 10^(10)`(t - x/c)
