JEE Main & Advanced Physics EM Waves Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Electromagnetic Waves

  • question_answer
    In an electromagnetic wave, the electric and magnetic fields are \[100\,V{{m}^{-1}}\] and \[0.265\,A\,{{m}^{-1}}\]. The maximum energy flow is

    A) \[26.5\text{ }W/{{m}^{2}}\]      

    B)        \[36.5\text{ }W/{{m}^{2}}\]

    C) \[46.7\text{ }W/{{m}^{2}}\]      

    D)        \[765\text{ }W/{{m}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Here, amplitude of electric field, \[{{E}_{0}}=100\,V/m\] amplitude of magnetic field, \[{{H}_{0}}=0.265\,A/m\]. We know that the maximum rate of energy flow, \[S={{E}_{0}}\times {{H}_{0}}=100\times 0.265=26.5\,W/{{m}^{2}}\].
