A plane electromagnetic wave of frequency \(20\,MHz\) propagates in free space along \(x\)-direction. At a particular space and time, \(\overrightarrow{ E }=6.6 \hat{ j } V / m\). What is \(\overrightarrow{ B }\) at this point?

Pick an option to check your answer.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2.2 \times 10^{-8} \hat{ k }\,T\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\overrightarrow{ E }=6.6 \hat{ j }\)

\(v=20\,MHz\)

\(\overrightarrow{ c }=3 \times 10^8 \hat{ i }\)

\(|\overrightarrow{ B }|=\frac{|\overrightarrow{ E }|}{ c }=2.2 \times 10^{-8}\,T\)

\(\hat{ E } \times \hat{ B }=\hat{ c }\)

\(\overrightarrow{ B }=2.2 \times 10^{-8} \hat{ k }\,T\)
