8.Electromagnetic waves
easy

In a plane electromagnetic wave travelling in free space, the electric field component oscillates sinusoidally at a frequency of $2.0 \times 10^{10}\,Hz$ and amplitude $48\,Vm ^{-1}$. Then the amplitude of oscillating magnetic field is : (Speed of light in free space $=3 \times 10^8\,m s ^{-1}$)

A

$1.6 \times 10^{-6}\,T$

B

$1.6 \times 10^{-9}\,T$

C

$1.6 \times 10^{-8}\,T$

D

$1.6 \times 10^{-7}\,T$

Solution

$C =\frac{ E _0}{ B _0}$

$B _0=\frac{ E _0}{ C }$

$=\frac{48}{3 \times 10^8}$

$=1.6 \times 10^{-7}\,T$
