Physics · Electromagnetic Waves
The magnetic field vector of an electromagnetic wave is given by B = B0 (i + j) cos(kz - ωt) / √2, where i and j represent unit vectors along the x and y-axis respectively. At t = 0 s, two electric charges q1 of 4π C and q2 of 2π C located at (0, 0, π/k) and (0, 0, 3π/k) respectively, have the same velocity of 0.5c i (where c is the velocity of light). The ratio of the Lorentz force acting on charge q1 to q2 is:
- 12 : 1✓
- 2√2 : 1
- 32√2 : 1
- 41 : √2
Correct answer
2 : 1
