NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

A plane electromagnetic wave travels in free space with an electric field E = 6.3 ˆ j V/m at a certain point. If the speed of light in free space is 3 × 10^8 m/s, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field B at this point?

A

1 × 10^-8 T

B

9 × 10^-8 T

C

5 × 10^-8 T

D

0 × 10^-8 T

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using the relation B = E/c, where c is the speed of light, we get B = 6.3 V/m / 3 × 10^8 m/s = 2.1 × 10^-8 T.
