Characteristics of electromagnetic waves :-
# Electromagnetic waves are produced by accelerated charges.
# They do not require any material medium for propagation.
# In an electromagnetic wave, the electric Vector(E) and magnetic Vector(B) field vectors are at right angles to each other and to the direction of propagation. Hence electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.
# Variation of maxima and minima in both Vector(E) and Vector(B) occur simultaneously.
# They travel in vacuum or free space with a velocity 3 × 108 m s−1 given by the relation C = 1/Root(µoεo)
(µo – permeability of free space and εo - permittivity of free space)
