Chapter 32: Problem 2
Consider each of the electric- and magnetic-field orientations given next. In each case, what is the direction of propagation of the wave? (a) \(\vec{E}\) in the +\(x\)-direction, \(\vec{B}\) in the +\(y\)-direction; (b) \(\vec{E}\) in the -\(y\)-direction, \(\vec{B}\) in the +\(x\)-direction; (c) \(\vec{E}\) in the +\(z\)-direction, \(\vec{B}\) in the -\(x\)-direction; (d) \(\vec{E}\) in the +\(y\)-direction, \(\vec{B}\) in the -\(z\)-direction.
