Discuss general characteristics of electromagnetic radiations.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The general characteristics of the electromagnetic radiations are as follows:
(i) The electric and magnetic fields produced by charged particles are perpendicular to each other. Both electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.
(ii) Electromagnetic waves or radiations do not require any medium. They can move in vacuum.
(iii) Different types of electromagnetic radiations differ from one another in wavelength or frequency
