The magnetic field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by `B_(y)=(2xx10^(-7)) T sin (0.5xx10^(3)x+1.5xx10^(11)t)`.
Write an expression for the electric field.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`E_(o) =B_(o)c =2xx10^(-7) Txx 3xx10^(8) m//s =6xx10^(1) V//m`
The electric field component is perpendicular to the direction of propagation and the direction of magnetic field. Therefore, the electric field component along the z-axis is obtained as
`E_(z) =60 sin (0.5 xx10^(3) x +1.5 xx10^(11) t) V//m`
