A sinusoidal electromagnetic wave is propagating in vacuum. At a given point and at a particular time the electric field is in the x direction and the magnetic field is in the -y direction. What is the direction of propagation of the wave

Explanation:

A wave is a disturbance or oscillation that passes through spatial time and is followed by a transfer of energy. For transverse waves, the propagation direction is perpendicular to the oscillation direction. A wave moves energy rather than moving mass within the direction of propagation.

From the given information;

The direction =

This implies that:  

In the direction

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s

given:

acceleration = 0.6

time = 4.5 s

to find:

velocity = ?

formula used:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

solution:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

v = 0 + (0.6 × 4.5)

v = 2.7 m/s

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s
