Question 74: EM waves

Question

Given below are two statements :
Statement I : Electromagnetic waves are not deflected by electric and magnetic field.
Statement II : The amplitude of electric field and the magnetic field in electromagnetic waves are related to each other as $${E_0} = \sqrt {{{{\mu _0}} \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}} {B_0}$$.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Accepted Answer

Statement I is correct as photon do not carry any charge, hence cannot feel force from either fields.
Statement II is wrong as $$E_0=cB_0$$
$${E_0} = {{{B_0}} \over {\sqrt {{\mu _0}{\varepsilon _0}} }}$$
