Prove that the average energy density of the oscillating electric field is equal to that of the oscillating magnetic field.

The energy density of the electric field is given by, U E = 1 2 ε 0 E 2 — equation i where, ε 0 is the permittivity of free space, E is the electric field. The energy density of the magnetic field is given by, U B = 1 2 B 2 μ 0 — equation ii where μ 0 is permeability of free space and B is the magnetic field. Now, we know that E = cB , where c is the speed of the light and c = 1 μ 0 ε 0 , therefore E = 1 μ 0 ε 0 B Substituting this value in equation i , we get U E = 1 2 ε 0 1 μ 0 ε 0 2 = 1 2 B 2 μ 0 from equation ii , U E = U B So the average energy density of the oscillating electric field is equal to that of the oscillating magnetic field.

Name the electromagnetic radiations used for eye surgery.

The ultraviolet radiation, that according to electromagnetic spectrum lies between X-rays and visible light in the increasing order of wavelength is used for water purification and for Laser eye treatment (LASIK) or eye surgery.

Which mode of propagation is used by short wave broadcast services ?

The broadcast services use the mode of Skywave propagation. These are short waves having frequencies within the range of a few MHz up to 30 MHz. Skywaves can propagate through the atmosphere and are reflected back by the ionosphere of the earth's atmosphere. These can cover very long distances and can even travel around the earth. It is a type of radio wave propagation.
