The electric field part of an electromagnetic wave in a medium is represented by `E_(x)=0,` `E_(y)=2.5(N)/(C) cos[(2pixx10^(6)(rad)/(m))t-(pixx10^(-2)(rad)/(s))x]` `E_(z)=0`. The wave isA. Moving along –x direction with frequency `10^(6)` Hz and wavelength 200mB. Moving along y direction with frequency `2pi xx10^(6)` Hz and wavelength 200mC. Moving along x direction with frequency `10^(6)` Hz and wavelength 100mD. Moving along x direction with frequency `10^(6)` Hz and wavelength 200m

Answer» Correct Answer - D
As the coefficient of x is negative , it is moving along +ve x-axis and equating the equation
`E_(y)=2.5 cos [(2 pi xx 10^(6))t-(pixx10^(-2))x]`
with `y=A cos (omegat-kx)`
`omega=2 pi xx 106`
`implies f=(omega)/(2pi)=10^(6)Hz `
`k= pi xx 10^(-2)`
` lambda=(2pi)/(k)`
`=(2pi)/(pi xx 10^(-2))=200m`
