A radiation is emitted by $1000\, W$ bulb and it generates an electric field and magnetic field at $P$, placed at a distance of $2\, m$. The efficiency of the bulb is $1.25 \%$. The value of peak electric field at $P$ is $x \times 10^{-1} \,V / m$. Value of $x$ is. (Rounded-off to the nearest integer)

[Take $\varepsilon_{0}=8.85 \times 10^{-12} C ^{2} N ^{-1} m ^{-2}, c =3 \times 10^{8}$ $ms ^{-1}$ ]

A

$137$

B

$149$

C

$164$

D

$121$

Solution

$I _{ avg }=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_{0} E _{0}^{2} C$

$\frac{1.25}{100} \times \frac{1000}{4 \pi(2)^{2}}=\frac{1}{2} \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times 3\times 10^{8} \times E _{0}^{2}$

$E _{0}^{2}=187.4$

$\therefore E _{0}=13.689 V / m$

$=136.89 \times 10^{-1} V / m$

$\therefore x =136.89$

Rounding off to nearest integer $x =137$
