JEE Main & Advanced Sample Paper JEE Main - Mock Test - 3

  • question_answer
    The electric and the magnetic field associated with an E.M. wave, propagating along the +z-axis, can be represented by

    A) \[\left[ \vec{E}={{E}_{0}}\hat{i},\,\,\vec{B}={{B}_{0}}\hat{j} \right]\] 

    B) \[\left[ \vec{E}={{E}_{0}}\hat{k},\,\,\vec{B}={{B}_{0}}\hat{i} \right]\]

    C) \[\left[ \vec{E}={{E}_{0}}\hat{j},\,\,\vec{B}={{B}_{0}}\hat{i} \right]\]  

    D) \[\left[ \vec{E}={{E}_{0}}\hat{j},\,\,\vec{B}={{B}_{0}}\hat{k} \right]\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    E.M. wave always propagates in a direct perpendicular to both electric and magnetic fields. electric and magnetic fields should be along \[+\text{ }X\]- and  \[+Y\]-directions respectively. Therefore, option is the correct option.
