Question

E = E0 sin ($\omega$t – kx)
B = B0 sin ($\omega$t – kx), then ratio of energy density of electric field to magnetic field is :

• A. 1:1
• B. 1:3
• C. 1:2
• D. 2:1

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

1:1

Answer 2

In the EM wave,
(The energy density)magnetic field = (The energy density)electric field

So, the correct answer is (A): 1:1
