In an EMW in free space the root mean square value of the electric field is

{E_{rms}} = 6\,\frac{V}{m}

. The peak value of the magnetic field is [in Tesla]

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

2.83 \times {10^{ - 8}}

Option B (

2.83 \times {10^{ - 8}}

) is correct because it is calculated using the relationship between electric and magnetic field amplitudes in an electromagnetic wave and the given RMS electric field.
