To solve the question, we will break it down into two parts: 1. The orientation of the electric vector (E), magnetic vector (B), and the velocity of propagation (c) in an electromagnetic wave. 2. The time taken for gamma radiation to travel from the Sun to the Earth. ### Part 1: Orientation of Vectors in an Electromagnetic Wave 1. **Understanding the Orientation**: ...
