easy
The magnetic field in a travelling electromagnetic wave has a peak value of $20\ n T$. The peak value of electric field strength is......$Vm^{-1}$
A
$3 $
B
$6 $
C
$9$
D
$12$
(JEE MAIN-2013)
Solution
From question,
$\mathrm{B}_{0}=20 \mathrm{nT}=20 \times 10^{-9}\, \mathrm{T}$
($\because$ velocity of light in vacuum $\mathrm{C}=3 \times 10^{8}\, \mathrm{\,ms}^{-1}$)
$ \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}_{0} =\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}_{0} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{C}} $
$ | \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}_{0} =|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}| \cdot|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{C}}|=20 \times 10^{-9} \times 3 \times 10^{8} $
$=6 \,\mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m} $
