8.Electromagnetic waves
easy

A plane electromagnetic wave of frequency $25\; \mathrm{GHz}$ is propagating in vacuum along the $z-$direction. At a particular point in space and time, the magnetic field is given by $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}=5 \times 10^{-8} \hat{\mathrm{j}}\; \mathrm{T}$. The corresponding electric field $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}$ is (speed of light  $\mathrm{c}=3 \times 10^{8}\; \mathrm{ms}^{-1})$

A

$1.66 \times 10^{-16} \hat{\mathrm{i}} \;\mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$

B

$15 \hat{\mathrm{i}}\; \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$

C

$-1.66 \times 10^{-16} \hat{i} \;\mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$

D

$-15 \hat{\mathrm{i}}\; \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$

(JEE MAIN-2020)

Solution

$\mathrm{E}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{V}}$

$=\left(5 \times 10^{-8} \hat{j}\right) \times\left(3 \times 10^{8} \hat{\mathrm{k}}\right)$

$=15 \hat{\mathrm{i}}\; \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$
