Electric field of plane electromagnetic wave propagating through a non-magnetic medium is given by \({E}=20 \cos \left(2 \times 10^{10} {t}-200 {x}\right) \,{V} / {m} .\) The dielectric constant of the medium is equal to : (Take \(\mu_{{r}}=1\) )
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(9\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Speed of wave \(=\frac{2 \times 10^{10}}{200}=10^{8}\, {m} / {s}\)
Refractive index \(=\frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{10^{8}}=3\)
Now refractive index \(=\sqrt{\varepsilon_{{r}} \mu_{{r}}}\)
\(3=\sqrt{\varepsilon_{{r}}(1)}\)
\(\Rightarrow \varepsilon_{{r}}=9\)
