    The magnetic field in a plane electromagnetic wave   is   given   by \[{{B}_{y}}=2\times {{10}^{-7}}\] \[\sin \,(0.5\times {{10}^{-3}}\times +1.5\times {{10}^{11}}t).\] This electromagnetic wave is

    A)  a visible light     

    B)  an infrared wave

    C)  a microwave     

    D)  a radio wave

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     We have, \[{{B}_{y}}=2\times {{10}^{-7}}\sin (0.5\times {{10}^{3}}x+1.5\times {{10}^{11}}t)\] Comparing with the standard equation, we get \[{{B}_{y}}={{B}_{0}}\sin \,(kx+\omega \,t)\] \[k=0.5\times {{10}^{3}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\lambda =\frac{2\pi }{0.5\times {{10}^{3}}}=0.01256\] The wavelength range of microwaves is \[{{10}^{-3}}\] to 0.3. The wavelength of this wave lies between \[{{10}^{-3}}\] to 0.3, so the equation represents a microwaves.
