Question
Consider an electromagnetic wave in which the
electric field is
E' =EOj^cos(kx-wt) E→=E0j^cos(kx-wt),
with k = 1.083x10' m^-1 and ww = 3.247x1015
rad/s.
Assume the light intensity (=(6P/SA)avg. =(SP/
SA)avg. ) is 0.170 W/m^2.
(a) What is the maximum electric field strength,
EOEO?
(in V/m)
(b) What is the maximum magnetic field strength,
BOBO?
(in T)
(c) What is the wavelength?
(in m)
