Consider an electromagnetic wave propagating in vacuum. Choose the correct statement : For an electromagnetic wave propagating in `+ y `directionn the

A

for an electroamgnetic wave propagation in +X direction the electric field is ` vecE = (1 ) /( sqrt(2)) E_(yz ) ( x,t ) ( vecy - vecz)` and the magnetic field is ` vecB = (1)/( sqrt(2) ) B_(yz ) ( x, t) ( vecy + vecz )`

B

For an electromagnetic wave propagation in +X direction the electric field is ` vecE = (1)/( sqrt(2)) E_(yz ) ( y ,z,t ) ( haty + hatz )`

C

For an electromagnetic wave propagation in + y directiono the electric field is ` vecE = (1 )/( sqrt(2) ) E_(yz 0 ( x,t) haty` and the magnetic field is ` vecB = (1 )/( sqrt(2)) B_(yz ) (x,t ) hatz `

D

For an electromagnetic wave proparating in +y direction the electric field is ` vecE = (1)/( sqrt(2)) E_(yz ) (x,t) hatz ` and the magnetic field is ` vecB = (1)/( sqrt(2) ) B_z (x,t) haty`
