Explanation 1) Concept: Here, we need to use the concept of polarization of light. Also, using the equation of frequency related with wave number, we can calculate the frequency. We can use the equation of amplitude ratio to find the magnitude of electric field. Then, to calculate the intensity of light, we need to use the equation of intensity related with rms value of electric field. 2) Formula: i) E m = B m × c ii) k ^ × i ^ = j ^ iii) λ = 2 π k iv) f = c λ v) Equation 33.25, E r m s = E m 2 vi) Equation 33.26. I = 1 c μ 0 × E r m s 2 3) Given: The magnetic component of the polarized light is B x = 4.0 × 10 - 6 T sin ⁡ 1.57 × 10 7 m - 1 y + ω t . 4) Calculation: a) According to the given equation, the magnetic field is along the x direction and the wave is along the negative y direction. It means E ^ × i ^ = - j ^ This shows that the electric field direction is - k ^ , that is, along the negative z direction. As the polarization direction is along the electric field, we can say that the light is polarized in the direction parallel to z axis. b) From the given equation, we have k = 1.57 × 10 7 m - 1 T
