Question
Chapter 32, Problem 1DQ
To determine
The direction of electromagnetic wave by measuring electric and magnetic fields.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The propagation direction of electromagnetic wave is perpendicular to vectors of electric filed and magnetic field.
Assume direction of electric filed and magnetic field can be found at a point in a space. The direction of propagation wave can be found by taking cross product of electric filed and magnetic field
From figure 1, electromagnetic wave direction is perpendicular to the vectors of electric filed and the magnetic field. Therefore, direction of electromagnetic wave is opposite to direction of
Conclusion:
Therefore, direction of electromagnetic wave is opposite to direction of
