Concept #1: Introduction to Electromagnetic (EM) Waves
Concept #2: Introduction to Electromagnetic (EM) Waves - Speed of Light
Practice: You measure the magnetic field strength of a traveling electromagnetic wave to be 8.0×10-7 T, oriented along the +x direction. If this EM wave moves in the +y direction, what is the magnitude and direction of the wave’s electric field at that same exact spot?
