Q. Given magnetic field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by →B=3×10−8sin(ωt−kx+ϕ)^j, then what will be expression for the electric field (→E)?
- →E=3×10−8sin(1.6×103x+48×1010t)^i V/m
- →E=3×10−8sin(1.6×103x+48×1010t)^j V/m
- →E=60sin(1.6×103x+48×1010t)^k V/m
- →E=9sin(1.6×103x+48×1010t)^k V/m
