Verified by Experts


(b) Average energy density of oscillating electric field :
`mu_(E)=1/2in_(0)E_("rms")^(2)" ....(1)"`
Average energy density of oscillating magnetic field :
`mu_(B)=1/(2mu_(0))B_(rms)^(2)" ....(2)"`

`B_(rms)=E_(rms)/CandC=1/sqrt(mu_(0)in_(0))`
`B_(rms)=E/(1/sqrt(mu_(0)in_(0)))=E_(rms)sqrt(mu_(0)in_(0))`
Substituting the above value in equation (2)
`mu_(B)=1/(2mu_(0))E_(rms)^(2)mu_(0)in_(0)`
`mu_(B)=1/2in_(0)E_(rms)^(2)=mu_(E)`
