  • A
    $y -$ axis
  • B
    $x -$ axis
  • $z -$ axis
  • D
    $-z -$ axis

Answer

Correct option: C.
$z -$ axis

Light wave is an electromagnetic wave in which $E$ and $B$ are at right angles to each other as well as at right angles to the direction of wave propagation. So from the given information in the question, the direction of $B$ vector is in positive $z$ direction.
