8.Electromagnetic waves
easy

$+ z$ -अक्ष की दिशा में गमन करती हुई विधुत चुम्बकीय तरंगो से सम्बद्ध विधुत और चुम्बकीय क्षेत्रों को निरूपित किया जा सकता है:

A

$\left[ {\vec E = {E_0}\hat i,\vec B = {B_0}\hat j} \right]$

B

$\left[ {\vec E = {E_0}\hat k,\vec B = {B_0}\hat i} \right]$

C

$\left[ {\vec E = {E_0}\hat j,\vec B = {B_0}\hat i} \right]$

D

$\left[ {\vec E = {E_0}\hat j,\vec B = {B_0}\hat k} \right]$

(AIPMT-2011)

Solution

The electromagnetic wave is propagating along the $+z$ axis.

since the electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave.

Also, $\vec{E} \times \bar{B}$ gives the direction of wave propagation. $\therefore \vec{E}=E_{0} \hat{i}, B=B_{0} \hat{j}$

$(\because \hat{i} \times \hat{j}=\hat{k})$
