The unit of 2I 0 c is : (I = intensity of an electromagnetic wave, c = speed of light)
- Vm
- NC-1
- NC
- Nm
Answer
(2) NC-1
Solution
Intensity of an electromagnetic wave: I = 12 0 c E02
E02 = 2I 0 c
2I 0 c = E0 (amplitude of the electric field)
Its unit is that of electric field, N C-1 (same as V m-1).
