The ratio of amplitude of magnetic field to the amplitude of electric field for an electromagnetic wave propagating in vacuum is equal to :
-
- the speed of light in vacuum
- reciprocal of speed of light in vacuum
- the ratio of magnetic permeability to the electric susceptibility of vacuum
- unity
Correct Option: B
The average energy stored in the electric field
U E = | ∊0 E2 | |
