In a plane electromagnetic wave travelling in free space, the electric field component oscillates sinusoidally at a frequency of and amplitude . Then the amplitude of oscillating magnetic field is : (Speed of light in free space )
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
$$C=\frac{E_{0}}{B_{0}}$$
$$\mathrm{B}_{0}=\frac{\mathrm{E}_{0}}{\mathrm{C}}$$
$$=\frac{48}{3 \times 10^{8}}$$
$$=1.6 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~T}$$
