A brief note on Wave nature of electromagnetic radiation ( James Maxwell)
Answers
1. The energies emitted from any source continuously in the form of radiations is called radiant energy.
2. When a charged particle oscillates it produces oscillating , electric and magnetic fields which are perpendicular to each other and both are perpendicular to the direction of the propagation of waves .
3. Electromagnetic radiations possess wave characters and travel with the velocity of light ( 3 × 10^8 m/s).
4. Electromagnetic radiations do not require any medium for propagation and can move in vacuum.
5. The energy of the radiation is directly proportional to the intensity of radiation.
6. Electromagnetic spectrum -
All electromagnetic radiations travel with the speed of light but differ in their wavelength and frequency.
The arrangement of different electromagnetic radiations in the order of increasing wavelength and decreasing frequency is called electromagnetic spectrum.
