COMEDK · Physics · 24. Electromagnetic Waves
A plane electromagnetic wave with frequency 40 MHz travels in free space. At a particular point in space and time, the magnetic field is \(2 \times 10^{-8} T\). What will be the electric field at this point?
- A \(18 \mathrm{Vm}^{-1}\)
- B \(16 \mathrm{Vm}^{-1}\)
- C \(6 \mathrm{Vm}^{-1}\)
- D \(8 \mathrm{Vm}^{-1}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(6 \mathrm{Vm}^{-1}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The relationship between the magnitude of the electric field \(E\) and the magnetic field \(B\) in an electromagnetic wave traveling in free space is given by \(E = cB\), where \(c\) is the speed of light in vacuum. The speed of light in vacuum is…
