Physics Question on Electromagnetic Spectrum
The oscillating magnetic field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by By = 5×10–6 sin1000π(5x–4×108t)T. The amplitude of electric field will be:
A
15×102 Vm–1
B
5×10–6 Vm–1
C
16×1012Vm–1
D
4×102 Vm–1
Answer
4×102 Vm–1
Explanation
Solution
We know that the Speed of light : c=kω
= 54×108=0.8×108 m/sec
Therefore, E0=cB0
=0.8×108×5×10–6
= 400 V/m
= 4×10–2
Hence, the correct option is (D): 4×10–2Vm−1
