EM Waves and their transverse nature

Transverse Waves

Light waves are transverse in nature .

Electrimagnetic waves are transverse is nature is evident by

Light waves are transverse in nature. This is indicated by

A: Light waves can be polarised. R: Light waves are transverse in nature.

A : In an electromagnetic wave the energy density in electric field is equal to energy density in magnetic field. R : Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.

Assertion : Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature Reason : The electric and magnetic fields in electromagnetic waves are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation.

Assertion : The electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature. Reason : Waves of wavelength 10 μm are radiowave and microwave.
