NEET 2025 Physics Electromagnetic Waves MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 12

The electric field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by Eₓ = 60cos (5x + 1.5×10⁹t)V/m. Then expression for the corresponding magnetic field is (here subscripts denote the direction of the field):

A

Bᵧ = 2×10⁻⁷ cos (5x + 1.5×10⁹t)T

B

Bₓ = 2×10⁻⁷ cos (5x + 1.5×10⁹t)T

C

Bᶻ = 60cos (5x + 1.5×10⁹t)T

D

Bᵧ = 60sin (5x + 1.5×10⁹t)T

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using the relation B = E/c, where c is the speed of light, the magnetic field is calculated. The correct expression is Bᵧ = 2×10⁻⁷ cos (5x + 1.5×10⁹t)T.
