MCQ
The nature of electromagnetic wave is :-
- Alongitudinal
- Blongitudinal stationary
- ✓transverse
- Dtransverse stationary
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
transverse
c
Electromagnetic waves are transverse. The are moving with a certain phase velocity $v =\frac{\omega}{ k }$. Thus they are not stationary.
