The angle between the direction of electric and magnetic fields of an electromagnetic wave is:

Correct option is A

The correct answer is: (a) 90°
Explanation:
· In an electromagnetic wave, the electric field (E) and magnetic field (B) are perpendicular to each other, and both are also perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
· Hence, the angle between the electric and magnetic fields is 90 degrees.
Information Booster:
· EM waves are transverse in nature.
· They do not require a medium for propagation.
· The speed of EM waves in vacuum is 3 × 10⁸ m/s.
· EM spectrum includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.
· James Clerk Maxwell formulated the theory of electromagnetism.
· EM waves carry both energy and momentum.
