depends not only on its constitutive parameters                                   but also on the

It is called as Poynting vector & it represents power density 
P = E×H vector associated with the electromagnetic field 

The integration of the Poynting vector over any closed surface gives the net power 
flowing out of the surface.

Poynting theorem states that the net power flowing out of a given volume V is equal to the 
time rate of decrease in the energy stored within V minus the ohmic loss.

Polarisation of plane wave
• The polarisation of a plane wave can be defined as 
the orientation of the electric field vector as a 
function of time at a fixed point in space. 
• For an electromagnetic wave, the specification of the 
F l t ti th ifi ti f th
orientation of the electric field is sufficient as the 
magnetic field components are related to electric 
field vector by the Maxwell's equations.
