A plane electromagnetic wave is incident on a material surface. If the wave delivers momentum $p$ and energy $E$, then
$p = 0, E = 0$
$p \neq 0, E \neq 0$
$p \neq 0, E = 0$
$p = 0, E \neq 0$
A plane electromagnetic wave travels in vacuum along $z-$ direction. What can you say about the directions of its electric and magnetic field vectors? If the frequency of the wave is $30 \;MHz$, what is its wavelength in $m$?
In an electromagnetic wave the electric field vector and magnetic field vector are given as $\vec{E}=E_{0} \hat{i}$ and $\vec{B}=B_{0} \hat{k}$ respectively. The direction of propagation of electromagnetic wave is along.
The property which is not of an electromagnetic wave travelling in free space is that:
Electric field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by ${E}=50 \sin \left(500 {x}-10 \times 10^{10} {t}\right) \,{V} / {m}$ The velocity of electromagnetic wave in this medium is :
(Given ${C}=$ speed of light in vacuum)
The electric field of an electromagnetic wave in free space is represented as $\vec{E}=E_0 \cos (\omega t-k z) \hat{i}$.The corresponding magnetic induction vector will be :
