According to definition of displacement current, we can write
A point source surrounded by vacuum emits an electromagnetic wave of frequency of 900 kHz. If the power emitted by the source is 15 W, the amplitude of the electric field of the wave (in 10-3V/m) at a distance 15 km from the source is :
( (1 / 4πε0) = 9×109 Nm2/C2 and speed of light in vacuum = 3 × 108 ms-1)

I = P/ (4πr²) . (i)
and I = (1/2)ε? E? ²c . (ii)
From (i) and (ii)
P/ (4πr²) = (1/2)ε? E? ²c
E? = √ (2P/ (4πε? r²c) ; E? = √ (9×10? ×2×15)/ (15×15×10? ×3×10? ) = 2×10? ³ V/m
A TV transmission tower antenna is at a height of 20m. Suppose that the receiving antenna is at
(i) ground level
(ii) a height of 5m
The increase in the antenna range in case (ii) relative to case (i) is n %.
The value of n, to the nearest integer, is.
A TV transmission tower antenna is at a height of 20m. Suppose that the receiving antenna is at
(i) ground level
(ii) a height of 5m
The increase in the antenna range in case (ii) relative to case (i) is n %.
The value of n, to the nearest integer, is.
d_lm = Distance covered by transmitting antenna + Distance covered by receiving antenna
⇒ d_lm = √ (2Rh_transmitting) + √ (2Rh_receiving)
⇒ d_lm = √ (2 × 64 × 10? × 20) + √ (2 × 64 × 10? × 5) = 16000 + 8000 = 24000m
When h_receiving = 0 then
d_2m = √ (2 × 64 × 10? × 20) = 16000m
% increment = (8000/16000

As we know that direction of propagation of electromagnetic wave is perpendicular to plane containing mutually perpendicular electric field and magnetic field, so option D will be correct answer.
If 2.5×10-9 N average force is exerted by a light wave on a non- reflecting surface of 30 cm2 area during 40 minutes of time span, the energy flux of light just before it falls on the surface is . W / cm2. (Round off to the Nearest Integer) (Assume complete absorption and normal incidence conditions are there)

The force (F) exerted by radiation is the rate of change of momentum (p).
F = Δp/Δt
For photons, p = E/c. So, F = (1/c) * (ΔE/Δt).
Since Power (P) is ΔE/Δt, F = P/c.
Intensity (I) is Power per unit Area (P/A).
The formula provided in the document is F/A = (nE)/ (Δt c A) which leads to a final calculated
