Question

Which of the following has zero average value in a plane electromagnetic wave?

✓

Answer

Both (b) and (©)

Explanation:
The average of $\sin\theta$ and $\cos\theta$ for whole cycle is is zero.
Step 1: Analyzing the average value of Kinetic energy.
Kinetic Energy is always a positive quantity, therefore its average will also be a positive quantity.
Step 2: Finding the average of electric and the magnetic field.
The equations for the electric field and the magnetic field are given as
