Question

Calculate the maximum electric field strength in kv/m if the wave traveling in a medium in which the speed of the wave was is 0.75c

Answer 1

The maximum electric field strength is 1.23 kV/m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the maximum magnetic field strength of an electromagnetic field is,
`B=5.5* 10^(-6)\ T`

We need to find the maximum electric field if the wave traveling in a medium in which the speed of the wave was is 0.75 c.

The relation between the amplitude of electric and magnetic field is given by :

`E=Bc`

E is maximum electric field strength

c is speed of light

`E=5.5* 10^(-6)* 0.75* 3* 10^8\\\\E=$$1237.5\ V/m\\\\E=1.23\ kV/m`

So, the maximum electric field strength is 1.23 kV/m.
