Study Notes

Electromagnetic Waves

  • The equation of a plane progressive electromagnetic wave is E(x, t) = E0sin(kx - ωt), where E0 is the amplitude, k is the wave number, and ω is the angular frequency.

Frequency Range of TV Waves

  • The frequency range for TV waves is from 50MHz to 220MHz.

Modulation

  • Amplitude Modulation (AM) uses radio waves in the range from 530kHz to 1710kHz.

Frequency and Oscillation of Charge

  • The frequency of an electromagnetic wave is equal to the frequency of oscillation of charge.

Speed of Electromagnetic Waves

  • Electromagnetic waves propagate through space at a speed of 3.0 x 10^8 m/s, which is the speed of light.
