Qstn# 8-a Prvs-QstnNext-Qstn
  • #8-a
    Determine, B0, ω, k, and λ. (b) Find expressions for E and B.
    Ans : Magnitude of magnetic field strength is given as:



    Angular frequency of source is given as:

    ω = 2``\pi``ν

    = 2``\pi`` × 50 × 106

    = 3.14 × 108 rad/s

    Propagation constant is given as:



    Wavelength of wave is given as:


    (b) Suppose the wave is propagating in the positive x direction. Then, the electric field vector will be in the positive y direction and the magnetic field vector will be in the positive z direction. This is because all three vectors are mutually perpendicular.

    Equation of electric field vector is given as:



    And, magnetic field vector is given as:
