Electromagnetic Waves

An electromagnetic wave of frequency 100 MHz propagates through a medium of conductivity, = 10 mho/m. The ratio of maximum conduction current density to maximum displacement current density is . [Take 14 0 = 9 109 N m2/C2]

If 0 denotes the permittivity of free space and E is the flux of the electric field through the area bounded by the closed surface, then dimensions of ( 0 d Edt ) are that of :

1. electric charge
2. electric field
3. electric current
4. electric potential

The unit of 2I 0 c is : (I = intensity of an electromagnetic wave, c = speed of light)

1. Vm
2. NC-1
3. NC
4. Nm

If an optical medium possesses a relative permeability of 10 and relative permittivity of 10.0885, then the velocity of light is greater in vacuum than that in this medium by times. ( 0 = 4 10-7 H/m, 0 = 8.85 10-12 F/m, c = 3 108 m/s)

The radiation pressure exerted by a 450 W light source on a perfectly reflecting surface placed 2 m away from it, is

1. 3 10-8 Pascals
2. 0
3. 1.5 10-8 Pascals
4. 6 10-8 Pascals

4. (A) is true but (R) is false

Due to presence of an em-wave whose electric component is given by E = 100 ( t - kx) NC-1 a cylinder of length 200 cm holds certain amount of em-energy inside it. If another cylinder of same length but half diameter than previous one holds same amount of em-energy, the magnitude of the electric field of the corresponding em-wave should be modified as

1. 50 ( t - kx) NC-1
2. 400 ( t - kx) NC-1
3. 200 ( t - kx) NC-1
4. 25 ( t - kx) NC-1

The magnetic field of an E.M. wave is given by B = ( 32 i + 12 j )30 [ (t - zc ) ] (S.I. Units). The corresponding electric field in S.I. units is:

1. E = ( 12 i + 32 j )30c [ (t + zc ) ]
2. E = ( 12 i - 32 j )30c [ (t - zc ) ]
3. E = ( 32 i - 12 j )30c [ (t + zc ) ]
4. E = ( 34 i + 14 j )30c [ (t - zc ) ]
