Question

If $\vec{E}$ and $\vec{K}$ represent electric field and propagation vectors of the EM waves in vacuum, then magnetic field vector is given by ( $ω$ - angular frequency) [2023]

Smart Achievers · Accepted Answer

(1)

Magnetic field vector will be in the direction of $\vec{K} \times \vec{E}$

$Magnitude of B = \frac{E}{C} = \frac{K}{ω} E$

or $\vec{B} = \frac{1}{ω} (\vec{K} \times \vec{E})$

Solution

Q.
If $\vec{E}$ and $\vec{K}$ represent electric field and propagation vectors of the EM waves in vacuum, then magnetic field vector is given by ( $ω$ - angular frequency) [2023]

1 $\frac{1}{ω} (\vec{K} \times \vec{E})$

2 $ω (\vec{K} \times \vec{E})$

3 $\vec{K} \times \vec{E}$

4 $ω (\vec{E} \times \vec{K})$

Ans.
(1)

Magnetic field vector will be in the direction of $\vec{K} \times \vec{E}$

$Magnitude of B = \frac{E}{C} = \frac{K}{ω} E$
