An electromagnetic wave has a magnetic field given by B(x,t)=-(8.2510-9T)j^cos[1.38104rad/mx+蝇迟]. (a) In which direction is the wave traveling? (b) What is the frequency of the wave? (c) Write the vector equation for E(x,t).

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. In - x - direction wave is traveling.
  2. The frequency of the wave is 6.591011Hz.

3. The vector equation for E(x,t)is

E=-248V/mcos1.38104rad/mx+4.141012rad/st .

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Define frequency and write formulas.

The number of waves that moves a fixed point in unit time is known as frequency.

f=1Tor2

Where, Time period in seconds and is angular frequency in .

The frequency, wavelength, and speed of light of any wave are related by the wavelength-frequency relationship.

The wavelength-frequency relationship is:

c=f

Where, c is the speed of light which is equal to 3108m/s, is the wavelength and f is the frequency.

The wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency.

=cforvf

Where, v is velocity of wave in .

The relation between wave number and wavelength is:

k=2

Where, k is wavenumber in .

The formula used to determine the amplitude of electric and magnetic fields of the wave are:

Emax=2l0cBmax=Emaxc

The equations of sinusoidal electromagnetic wave for electric and magnetic field are:

E=Emaxcoskx-tB=Bmaxcoskx-t

02

Determine the direction of wave and frequency of wave.

B(x,t)=-(8.2510-9T)j^cos[(1.38104rad/m)x+蝇迟]Given that,

The values of wavenumberk is1.38104rad/m and the maximum magnetic field is .

Bmaxis-8.2510-9T

B=-Bmaxcoskx+蝇迟

Since, if the phase of wave iskx-t then wave travels in positive x- direction. Therefore, the above equation defines the wave is travelling in negative x-direction as the phase of wave is kx-t.

The frequency of wave is:

f=c=kc2=1.381043.01082=6.591011Hz

03

Determine the vector equation.

The angular velocity of wave is:

=2蟺蹿=26.591011=4.141012rad/s

The formula used to determine the amplitude of electric fields of the wave are:

Emax=cBmax=3108-8.28109=-2.48V/m

The equation of sinusoidal electromagnetic wave for magnetic field is:

E=Emaxcoskx+蝇迟=-2.48V/mcos1.38104rad/mx+4.141012rad/st

Hence, the vector equation for is E=x,t.

E=-2.48V/mcos1.38104rad/mx+4.141012rad/st
