Explanation 1) Concept: Vector can be written by measuring the distances along each direction. Displacement can be calculated by change in position between two vectors. 2) Formulae: Unit vector notation: r → = r x i ^ + r y j ^ + r z k ^ 3) Given: i. r i x = 7 m ii. r i y = 1 m iii. r i z = - 2 m iv. r f x = 5 m v. r f y = - 3 m vi. r f z = 1 m 4) Calculations: a) Initial position vector ( r i → ) r - i → = r i x i ^ + r i y j ^ + r i z k ^ r i → = 7 i ^ + j ^ - 2 k ^ b) Final position vector ( r f → ) r → f =

An electromagnetic wave is traveling through vacuum in the positive x direction. Its electric field vector is given by E=E0sin⁡(kx−ωt)j^,where j^ is the unit vector in the y direction. If B0 is the amplitude of the magnetic field vector, find the complete expression for the magnetic field vector B→ of the wave. What is the Poynting vector S(x,t), that is, the power per unit area associated with the electromagnetic wave described in the problem introduction? Give your answer in terms of some or all of the variables E0, B0, k, x, ω, t, and μ0. Specify the direction of the Poynting vector using the unit vectors i^, j^, and k^ as appropriate.
