Question 100: EM waves

Question

The electric field in an electromagnetic wave is given by E = 56.5 sin $\omega$(t $-$ x/c) NC
$-$1
. Find the intensity of the wave if it is propagating along x-axis in the free space.

Accepted Answer

$I = {1 \over 2}{\varepsilon _0}E_0^2c$
$ = {1 \over 2}  8.5 	imes {10^{ - 12}} 	imes {(56.5)^2} 	imes 3 	imes {10^8}$
