प्रश्न
The sunlight reaching Earth has maximum electric field of 810 Vm−1. What is the maximum magnetic field in this light?
उत्तर
Given :
Electric field amplitude, E0 = 810 V/m
Maximum value of magnetic field = Magnetic field amplitude = B0 = ?
We know :
Speed of a wave = `E/B`
For electromagnetic waves, speed = speed of light
`B_0 = u_0 ε_0 cE_0`
Putting the values in the above relation , we get :
`B_0 = 4pi xx 10^-7 xx 8.85 xx 10^-12 xx 3 xx 10^8 xx 810`
`B_0 = 4 xx 3.14 xx 8.85 xx 3 xx 81 xx 10^-10`
`B_0 = 27010.9 xx 10^-10`
`B_0 = 2.7 xx 10^-6 "T" = 2.7 "uT"`
