Complete Question
The magnetic field of a plane-polarized electromagnetic wave moving in the z-direction is given by
[tex]B=1.2* 10^{-6} sin [2\pi[(\frac{z}{240} ) - ( \frac{t * 10^7}{8} ) ] ][/tex] in SI units.
Answer:
The value is [tex]f = 1.98918*10^{5}\ Hz[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The magnetic field is [tex]B=1.2* 10^{-6} sin [2\pi[(\frac{z}{240} ) - ( \frac{t * 10^7}{8} ) ] ][/tex]
This above equation can be modeled as
[tex]B=1.2* 10^{-6} sin [2\pi[(\frac{z}{240} ) - ( \frac{t * 10^7}{8} ) ] ] \equiv A sin ( kz -wt )[/tex]
So
[tex]w = \frac{10^7}{8}[/tex]
Generally the frequency is mathematically represented as
[tex]f = \frac{w}{2 \pi}[/tex]
=> [tex]f = \frac{ \frac{10^7}{8} }{2 \pi}[/tex]
=> [tex]f = 1.98918*10^{5}\ Hz[/tex]
