Answer:

the magnitude of the magnetic field of the wave is 16.7 nT

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Electric field E = 5.00 V/m

we know that the expression for the electric field of an electromagnetic wave in terms if magnetic field is;

E = cB

where c is the speed of light ( 3 × 10⁸ m/s )

and B is the magnetic field

so we solve for the magnetic field

B = E / c

we substitute in the value of E and c

B = (5.00 V/m) / (3 × 10⁸ m/s)

B = 1.67 × 10⁻⁸ T

B = 1.67 × 10⁻⁸ T [tex]( \frac{1nT}{10^{-9}T} )[/tex]

B = 16.7 nT

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field of the wave is 16.7 nT
