If the ratio of relative permeability and relative permittivity of a uniform medium is 1 : 4. The ratio of the magnitudes of electric field intensity (E) to the magnetic field intensity (H) of an EM wave propagating in that medium is (Given that 0 0 = 120 ):
- 30 : 1
- 1 : 120
- 60 : 1
- 120 : 1
Answer
(3) 60 : 1
Solution
For an EM wave in a medium, EH = = r r 0 0
EH = 14 120
EH = 60
E : H = 60 : 1
Answer: (3)
