Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(500\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\({E}=50 \sin \left(\omega {t}-\frac{\omega}{{c}} \cdot {x}\right)\)
Energy density \(=\frac{1}{2} \in_{0} {E}_{0}^{2}\)
Energy for volume \({V}=\frac{1}{2} \in_{0} {E}_{0}^{2} \cdot {V}=5.5 \times 10^{-12}\)
\(\frac{1}{2} 8.8 \times 10^{-12} \times 2500 {V}=5.5 \times 10^{-12}\)
\({V}=\frac{5.5 \times 2}{2500 \times 8.8}=.0005\, {m}^{3}\)
\(=.0005 \times 10^{6}\,({c} . {m})^{3}\)
\(=500({c} \, \cdot {m})^{3}\)
