In the linearly polarised electromagnetic wave propagating along the \( z \)-direction shown in Fig. 8.3, if the electric field vector \( \mathbf{E} \) oscillates along the \( x \)-axis, along which axis does the magnetic field vector \( \mathbf{B} \) oscillate?

Question diagram
  1. A
    \( x \)-axis
  2. B
    \( y \)-axis
  3. C
    \( z \)-axis
  4. D
    Along propagation direction
View Answer & Solution

Correct answer · Option B

\( y \)-axis

Explanation

The electric and magnetic fields in an electromagnetic wave are mutually perpendicular and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
