    Study Notes

    Electromagnetic Waves

    • Electromagnetic waves were discovered in 1845.
    • A changing magnetic field produces an electric field.
    • A changing electric field produces a magnetic field.
    • Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation.
    • Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves.
    • The electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of wave propagation.
    • The speed of electromagnetic waves in a vacuum is 3 x 1010 ms-1.
    • The equation for the speed of light is c =(1/(ε0μ0))1/2 where ε0 is the permittivity of free space and μ0 is the permeability of free space.
    • ε0 = 8.85 x 10-12 coul2 N-1 m-2
    • μ0 = 4π x 10-7 NA-2
    • Equation for the electric field: E = E0 sin(2π(vt - x)/λ)
    • Equation for the magnetic field: B= B0 sin(2π(vt - x)/λ)
    • E0 and B0 represent the maximum amplitudes of the electric and magnetic fields respectively.
