Example 2.4 Calculate the value of Poynting vector for a 60 W bulb at a distance of 0.5 m from it. Power 60 W. Area 4n(0.5m) Solution: Poynting’s vector, P = 19.1 W/m? Erne Dexermine refractive index and velocity of light if the relative permistivity of distilled water is 64 Solution: ‘The velocity of distilled water is given by Tue where ff, = 1, = 3 x 10° misec and €, = 64. Therefore ae" oa As we know the refractive index 1 of the medium is m= cf. Therefore, we =3.75%10" m/s oi =8 A uniform plane wave having electric field intensity inair as 7 x 10° Vim in the y-direction is propagacing in the x-direction ac a frequency of 2 x 10 radisec. Determine the frequency, wavelength, time-period and amplitude of H. Solution: We have 5 X10! cos (2% 108 pe) Here @ = 2X 10'radisee, fl, = 41 x10" WeberlA-m, €, =8.85%10- C!N-m?, Now frequency is given by 2x10° 2x34 18.5 x 10° Hz=3.18x10" Hz Wavelength is given by v__ 3x10" v 3.18x10Time period is given by Amplicude of His Therefore = 18.56 cos (2 x 10" px) Emo Allamp radiates 500 W power uniformly in all directions. Calculate the clectric and magnetic field inten- sities at 1 m distance from the lamp. Solution: As we know Poyiting vector > time, Now x FF is the energy flowing through unit area and unit Area= 47's 4x0(1)" = 4 mt Now 500, 3 P= 2 Jonle/msce np = 500 “ an But we know that FFL |e 23767743770 HH, \e, So £ =377 H. Multiplying both sides by H and using the value of EH we get 377 x H? = 208 8 pp = 30 i Wn x37 = H*=0.105 = H=0.33 Atum/m Now 500, ~_ 500 EH SE = 12063 Vim an 4x x 033Example 1: Calculating Radiation Pressure for a Perfectly Reflective Surface ght with an intensity of 69 Wins directed at 100% reflective surface What the posure exerted by theligh onthe surtace Use value of 3 108 m/s forthe speedo gin vacuum, Answer ‘We are told that we have light ith an ints of = 60 Wim! directed at a sce We ate asked to ‘workout he pressure exerted on the sure. “The question els ws tha he surfice is perfectly reflect.
