Q.

The electric field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by Ez=60cos(5x+1.5×109t)V/m.

Then expression for the corresponding magnetic field is (here subscripts denote the direction of the field)         [2025]
 

1 Bz=60cos(5x+1.5×109t)T  
2 By=60sin(5x+1.5×109t)T  
3 By=2×10-7cos(5x+1.5×109t)T  
4 Bx=2×10-7cos(5x+1.5×109t)T  

Ans.

(3)

Given, Ez=60cos(5x+1.5×109t)V/m

As, B0=E0cB0=603×108=2×10-7T

Since, In an electromagnetic wave, the direction of wave propagation is along 

E×B thus magnetic field will be along y-direction.

  By=2×10-7cos(5x+1.5×109t)J
