A plane electromagnetic wave travels in a medium of relative permeability 1.61 and relative permittivity 6.44. If magnitude of magnetic intensity is 4.5 * 10-2 Am-1 at a point, what will be the approximate magnitude of electric field intensity at that point ?
(Given : Permeability of free space µ0 = 4p * 10-7 NA-2, speed of light in vacuum c = 3 * 108 ms-1)

(Given : Permeability of free space µ0 = 4p * 10-7 NA-2, speed of light in vacuum c = 3 * 108 ms-1)
Velocity of wave in a medium =
E = vB = 0.931 * 108 * 1.61 * 4p * 4.5 * 10-9
= [0.931 * 1.61 * 4p * 4.5] * 10-1
= 8.476

According to definition of displacement current, we can write
B0 = 42.9 × 10-9
42.9 Ans
s? = -? + k? ∴ s? = (-? +k? )/√2
I = P/ (4πr²) . (i)
and I = (1/2)ε? E? ²c . (ii)
From (i) and (ii)
P/ (4πr²) = (1/2)ε? E? ²c
E? = √ (2P/ (4πε? r²c) ; E? = √ (9×10? ×2×15)/ (15×15×10? ×3×10? ) = 2×10? ³ V/m
