Questions and Answers

What is the equation of a plane progressive electromagnetic wave?

  • $E_n = -E_0\sin(kz - \omega t)$, $B_y = B_0\sin(kz - \omega t)$ (correct)
  • $E_n = -E_0\cos(kz + \omega t)$, $B_y = B_0\cos(kz + \omega t)$
  • $E_n = E_0\sin(kz + \omega t)$, $B_y = B_0\sin(kz + \omega t)$
  • $E_n = E_0\cos(kz - \omega t)$, $B_y = B_0\cos(kz - \omega t)$

What is the relationship between the frequency of an electromagnetic wave and the frequency of oscillation of charge?

  • The frequency of the electromagnetic wave is inversely proportional to the frequency of oscillation of charge.
  • The frequency of the electromagnetic wave is double the frequency of oscillation of charge.
  • The frequency of the electromagnetic wave is half the frequency of oscillation of charge.
