The correct answer is: 2×10-3 m

Recall the standard form of the equation of electromagnetic wave in terms of the magnetic field, By=B0sinkx+ωt T, here B0 is the magnitude of magnetic field, k=2πλ & ω=2πf. The equation is given in the question, By=2×10-7sinπ×103x+3π×1011t T

λ=2πk=2ππ×103λ=2×10-3 m.
