Light wave travelling in air along x-direction is given by ${E_y} = 540\sin \pi \times {10^4}(x - ct)\,V{m^{ - 1}}$. Then, the peak value of magnetic field of wave will be (Given c = 3 $\times$ 108 ms$-$1)
Solution
<p>$c = 3 \times {10^8}$ m/sec</p>
<p>$B = {E \over c} = {{540} \over {3 \times {{10}^8}}} = 18 \times {10^{ - 7}}\,T$</p>
