    The electric field of a certain plane electromagnetic wave is given by \[{{E}_{x}}=0\], \[{{E}_{y}}=0,\,{{E}_{z}}=2.0\cos \,[\pi \times {{10}^{15}}(t-x/c)]\] . The wave is propagating in the positive x-direction. Find the expressions for the components of the magnetic field of the wave.

    A)  \[{{B}_{x}}=0,\,{{B}_{y}}=6.7\times {{10}^{-9}}\cos [\pi \times {{10}^{16}}(t-x/c)]\],\[{{B}_{z}}=0\]

    B)  \[{{B}_{x}}=0,\,{{B}_{y}}=-6.7\times {{10}^{-9}}\cos [\pi \times {{10}^{15}}(t-x/c)]\],\[{{B}_{z}}=0\]

    C)  \[{{B}_{x}}=0,\,{{B}_{y}}=0,\,{{B}_{z}}=2.0\cos [\pi \times {{10}^{15}}(t-x/c)]\]

    D)  \[{{B}_{x}}=0,\,{{B}_{y}}=0,\,{{B}_{z}}=-6.7\times {{10}^{-9}}\cos [\pi (t-x/c)]\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    At plane, electromagnetic wave travelling with velocity \[c=3\times {{10}^{8}}m/s\] along x-axis, then electric field vector E is along y-axis while the magnetic field vector is along z-axis \[{{B}_{x}}=0\]\[{{B}_{y}}=-\frac{{{E}_{z}}}{C}=\frac{2.0\cos [\pi \times {{10}^{15}}(t-x/c)]}{3\times {{10}^{8}}}\] \[{{B}_{y}}=-6.7\times {{10}^{-9}}\cos [\pi \times {{10}^{15}}\,\,\,(t-x/c)]\]\[{{B}_{2}}=0\]
