Question

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 3.80 V/m , what is the magnitude of the magnetic field of the wave at this same point in space and instant in time?

Answer 1

The value is
`|\vec B| = 1.267 *0^(-8) \ T`

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnitude of the electric fields is
`E = 3.80 V/m`

Generally speed of light is mathematically represented as

`c = (|\vec E|)/( |\vec B|)`

Here c is the speed of light with value
`c = 3.0*10^(8) \ m/s`

`|\vec B |` is the magnitude of the magnetic field so

=>
`|\vec B| = (|\vec E|)/(c)`

=>
`|\vec B| = ( 3.80 )/(3.0*10^(8))`

=>
`|\vec B| = 1.267 *0^(-8) \ T`
