Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe direction of the electric field is considered as the polarization of the electromagnetic wave.
The direction of propagation of EM wave is given by the cross-product of the vector product of direction of electric field and magnetic field, i.e.
\({\hat a_p} = {\hat a_E} \times {\hat a_H}\)
This is an application of the Poynting theorem.
The electric field and magnetic field are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of EM waves.
