The electric field in an electromagnetic wave is given byE=56.5sinωt-xcNC-1. Find the intensity of the wave if it is propagating alongx-axis in the free space. (Givenϵ0=8.85×10-12C2 N-1 m-2)

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Given, E=56.5sinωt-xc N C-1

Comparing it with the general equation of electromagnetic wave, 

E=E0sin ωt-kx

We have, E0=56.5 N C-1

So, the intensity will be  I=12ε0E02c

=12×8.85×10-12×56.52×3×108

=4.24  W m-2
