Questions  

An electromagnetic wave in vacuum has the electric and magnetic fields E and  B, which are always perpendicular to each other. The direction of polarization is given by X and that of wave propagation by  K. Then

a
X¯||B¯ & K¯||B¯ ×E¯
b
X¯||E¯ & K¯||E¯ ×B¯
c
X¯||B¯ & K¯||E¯ ×B¯
d
X¯||E¯ & K¯||B¯ ×E¯

detailed solution

Correct option is B

We know that, direction of polarization X→ is parallel to electric field  E→, i.e, X→∥E→ and direction of wave propagation K→is perpendicular to both E→ as well as  B→. i.e, parallel to  E→×B→
