A) the speed of light in vacuum
B) reciprocal of speed of light in vacuum
C) the ratio of magnetic permeability to the electric susceptibility of vacuum
D) unity
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
As \[E=cB\] So required ratio\[\frac{E}{B}=c\] \[\frac{B}{E}=\frac{1}{c}\] Therefore, the ratio of amplitude of magnetic field to the amplitude of electric field for an electromagnetic wave propagating in vacuum is equal to reciprocal of speed of light.
