Question
An em wave is travelling in a medium with a velocity `vecv =vhati` Draw a sketch showing the propagation of the em wave, indicating the direction of the oscillating electric and magnetic fields.
Solution
Given that velocity, V = v î and electric field, E along X-axis and magnetic field, B along Z-axis.
The propagation of EM wave is following:
