Question

Give six properties of electromagnetic wave ?

Answer 1

Hey mate

Here's your answer___

1) Electromagnetic waves are propagated by oscillating electric and magnetic fields oscillating at right angles to each other.

 

2) Electromagnetic waves travel with a constant velocity of  3 x 108 ms-1 in vacuum.

 

3) Electromagnetic waves are not deflected by electric or magnetic field.

 

4) Electromagnetic waves can show interference or diffraction.

 

5) Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves.

 

6) Electromagnetic waves may be polarized.

 
Hope it helps☺☺

Answer 2

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves are even known as EM waves. Electromagnetic radiations are comprised of electromagnetic waves that are produced when an electric field arrives in contact with the magnetic field. It can also be said that electromagnetic waves exist in the arrangement of oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

Explanation:

An electromagnetic wave is one of the waves that are propagated by concurrent periodic deviations of electric and magnetic field intensity and that comprise radio waves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.

Basic Properties of Electromagnetic Waves

• Property 1: Electromagnetic waves exist transverse in nature.

• Property 2: They propagate by varying electric fields and magnetic fields, such that these two fields are at right angles to each other and at a right angle with the guide of propagation of the wave.

• Property 3: Electromagnetic waves traverse with a constant velocity in a vacuum. The speed of the waves exists at 3 x 108 m/s.

• Property 4: Electromagnetic waves exist as non-mechanical waves.

• Property 5: They observe the equation c = fλ. Here, f stands for the frequency is Hertz, and λ exists for the wavelength meters. The product of wavelength and frequency is equal to a constant c, the speed of light which is equal to 3 x 108 m/s. From this connection between wavelength, frequency, and velocity of light we can understand that the electromagnetic waves will traverse with the speed of light regardless of wavelength and frequency.

• Property 6: The oscillating electric field and magnetic field are in the identical stage. The percentage of the amplitudes of the electric field and the magnetic field is comparable to the velocity of the wave.
