NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 12

A plane electromagnetic wave is traveling in free space with an electric field given by E = 6.3 ˆj V/m. If the frequency of the wave is 25 MHz, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field B at this point in space and time?

A

1 × 10⁻⁸ T

B

0 × 10⁻⁸ T

C

5.3 × 10⁻⁸ T

D

6.3 × 10⁻⁸ T

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using the relation B = E/c for an electromagnetic wave in free space, where c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s, we find B = 6.3 / (3 × 10⁸) = 2.1 × 10⁻⁸ T.
