Question

What are the ratio of electric field and magnetic field in an electromagnetic wave?

Answer 1

Electromagnetic waves:

1. An electromagnetic wave is made up of an electric field, which would be characterized as the force per charge on such a stationary charge, and even a magnetic field, which would be characterized as the force per charge on a moving charge.
2. Only such x-coordinate and duration are believed to be functions of the electromagnetic field.

The ratio of electric field and magnetic field in em wave

The ratio of the amplitudes of the electric and magnetic fields in electromagnetic waves is equivalent to the velocity of the electromagnetic waves in space available.

$\frac{\mathrm{E}}{\mathrm{B}}=\mathrm{v}$

Here,

E is the electric field.

B is the magnetic field.

v is the velocity.
