An electromagnetic wave is propagating along the

+\mathrm{z}

-axis. Direction of electric and the magnetic field of this wave can be represented by

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

\vec{E}=E_0 \hat{i}, \vec{B}=B_0 \hat{j}

Option A (

\vec{E}=E_0 \hat{i}, \vec{B}=B_0 \hat{j}

) is correct because the electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation, which is the z-axis.
