A microwave oven operates with sinusoidal microwaves at a frequency of 2400 MHz. The height of the oven cavity is 25 cm and the base measures 30 cm by 30 cm. Assume that microwave energy is generated uniformly on the upper surface of the cavity and propagates directly downward toward the base. The base is lined with a material that completely absorbs microwave energy. The total microwave energy content of the cavity is 0.50 µJ. What is the amplitude of the electric field? *

Because the speed of light in vacuum (or air) has such a large value, it is very difficult to measure directly. To measure this speed, you conduct an experiment in which you measure the amplitude of the electric field in a laser beam as you change the intensity of the beam. Figure is a graph of the intensity I that you measured versus the square of the amplitude Emax of the electric field. The bestfit straight line for your data has a slope of 1.33 x 10-3 J/(V2 . s). (a) Explain why the data points plotted this way lie close to a straight line. (b) Use this graph to calculate the speed of light in air.
