PhysicsElectromagnetic WavesJEE Main 2015

An electromagnetic wave travelling in the direction has frequency of Hz and electric field amplitude of V m oscillates in direction. From the options given below, which one describes the magnetic field for this wave?

Answer: (4)

Solution

Three things fix the answer. First the amplitude: T, which rules out option (3). Second the direction: must point along the direction of propagation, and since is along the magnetic field must be along
