An electromagnetic wave has the following electric field 𝐸ሬԦ(π‘₯,
𝑦, 𝑧) = 200 ( 𝑁 𝐢 ) cos(400πœ‹ 𝑑 βˆ’ π‘˜(𝑦 + 𝑧)) π’ŠΜ‚ Where (x, y, z) are
given in meters and t is given in seconds. If the speed of light is
𝑐 = 3 108π‘š/𝑠 , answer the following questions about this
electromagnetic wave. (a) (3 Pts.) What is the correct SI units for
π‘˜? (b) (3 Pts.) What is the numerical value of π‘˜ (use πœ‹ = 3)? (c)
(3 Pts.) What is the frequency of this wave? (d) (3 Pts.) In which
direction is this electromagnetic wave propagating? (Give a vector
as your answer). (e) (3 Pts.) What is the wavelength of this wave?
(f) (3 Pts.) In which direction is the magnetic field of this wave
at the point π‘₯ = 0, 𝑦 = 0, 𝑧 = 0 at time 𝑑 = 0? The Poynting vector
of an electromagnetic wave is defined as 𝑆Ԧ = 1 πœ‡0 𝐸ሬԦ Γ— 𝐡ሬԦ (g) (3
Pts.) What is the direction of the Poynting vector for this
wave?
