If $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}$ and $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{K}}$ represent electric field and propagation vectors of the EM waves in vacuum, then magnetic field vector is given by: ( $\omega$ - angular frequency) :
- Correct answerA$\frac{1}{\omega}(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{K}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}})$
- B$\omega(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{K}})$
- C$\omega(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{K}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}})$
- D$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{K}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}$
Solution
For an EM wave
$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}=\frac{1}{\omega}(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{K}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}})$
$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}=\frac{1}{\omega}(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{K}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}})$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
