Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2022

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)

  1. A 18 $\times$ 10<sup>$-$7</sup> T Correct answer
  2. B 54 $\times$ 10<sup>$-$7</sup> T
  3. C 54 $\times$ 10<sup>$-$8</sup> T
  4. D 18 $\times$ 10<sup>$-$8</sup> T

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>
