Nature of EM Waves & Wave Equation

A plane electromagnetic wave with frequency of 30 MHz travels in free space. At particular point in space and time, electric field is 6 V/m. The magnetic field at this point will be x ×\times 10−-8 T. The value of x is ___________.

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 2

  1. B=EcB = \dfrac{E}{c} (frequency is not needed).
  2. B=63×108=2×10−8 TB = \dfrac{6}{3\times10^{8}} = 2\times10^{-8}\text{ T}
  3. So x=2x = 2.
