Question

Assume that a lamp radiates power P uniformly in all directions. The magnitude of electric field strength at a distance r from the lamp is, P πcε 0 r 2, P 2 πcεr 2, P 2 πε 0 r 2 c, P πε 0 cr 2

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

Intensity, I = power area = P 4 πr 2 = average energy density × velocity = 1 2 ε 0 E 0 2 c ∴ E 0 = 2 P 4 πε 0 r 2 c = P 2 πε 0 r 2 c
