1. Which of the following statements about electromagnetic waves in free space are true? (There could be more than one correct choice.) The electric field carries more energy than the magnetic field. The electric and magnetic fields have equal amplitudes. The electric field carries the same mount of energy as the magnetic field.

Light, radiant heat (infrared radiation), X rays, and radio waves are all examples of traveling electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves comprise combinations of electric and magnetic fields that are mutually compatible in the sense that the changes in one generate the other. The simplest form of a traveling electromagnetic wave is a plane wave. For a wave traveling in the x direction whose electric field is in the y direction, the electric and magnetic fields are given by Ē = E,...
