Asinusoidal electromagnetic wave is propagating in a vacuum in the +z-direction.

part a

if at a particular instant and at a certain point in space the electric field is in the +x-direction and has a magnitude of 3.40v/m , what is the magnitude of the magnetic field of the wave at this same point in space and instant in time?

part b

what is the direction of the magnetic field?

a)1.13 10-8 T.  b) +y direction

Explanation:

a)

For an electromagnetic wave propagating in a vacuum, the wave speed is c = 3. 108 m/s.

At a long distance from the source, the components of the wave (electric and magnetic fields) can be considered as plane waves, so the equations for them can be written as follows:

E(z,t) = Emax cos (kz-ωt-φ) +x

B(z,t) = Bmax cos (kz-ωt-φ) +y

In an electromagnetic wave, the magnetic field and the electric field, at any time, and at any point in space, as the perturbation is propagating at a speed equal to c (light speed in vacuum), are related by this expression:

Bmax = Emax/c

So, solving for Bmax:

Bmax = 3.4 V/m / 3 108 m/s = 1.13 10-8 T.

b) As we have already said, in an electromagnetic wave, the electric field and the magnetic field are perpendicular each other and to the propagation direction, so in this case, the magnetic field propagates in the +y direction.

dec 23, 2016 - a load of bricks weighing 680 n a distance of 10 m across a parking lot. if if the worker pushes the cart with a constant force of 209 n, what work= force x distance = 220 n x 10 m = 2200 n.m = 2200 j i don't know where the person got it from, but the initial part, work= force x distance me.
