a. What is the magnetic field amplitude of an electromagnetic wave whose electric field amplitude is 100V/m?

b. What is the intensity of the wave?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a.Magnetic field amplitude of an electromagnetic wave is 3.33×10-7T.

b.Intensity of the wave is13.2813W/m2.

Step by step solution

01

Formula for magnetic field amplitude and intensity

The amplitude of a magnetic field is,

Bo=|E|c

Intensity,

I=12EoEo2c

localid="1648794396885" c-Speed of the light in vacuum

02

Calculation for magnetic field amplitude of an electromagnetic wave (part a)

(a).

As it stands,

Eo=100V/m

c=3×108m/s

Bo=|E|c

Bo=100V/m3×108m/s

Bo=3.33×10-7T

03

Calculation for intensity of wave (part b)

(b).

As it stands,

Eo=100V/m

c=3×108m/s

I=12EoEo2c

I=12100|100|2×3×108

I=13.2813W/m2

1. Andre is flying his spaceship to the left through the laboratory magnetic field of FIGURE Q31.1.

a. Does Andre see a magnetic field? If so, in which direction does it point?

b. Does Andre see an electric field? If so, in which direction does it point?

In reading the instruction manual that came with your garagedoor opener, you see that the transmitter unit in your car produces a250mW,350MHzsignal and that the receiver unit is supposed to respond to a radio wave at this frequency if the electric field amplitude exceeds0.10V/m. You wonder if this is really true. To find out, you put fresh batteries in the transmitter and start walking away from your garage while opening and closing the door. Your garage door finally fails to respond when you're 42maway. What is the electric field amplitude at the receiver when it first fails??
