Formula Sheet — Electromagnetic Waves

Important formulas and equations from Electromagnetic Waves for MHT-CET Physics.

Formulas — Electromagnetic Waves

Displacement Current & Ampere's Law

ID = ε₀(dΦE/dt)
∮B⋅dl = μ₀[I + ε₀(dΦE/dt)]
c = 1/√(μ₀ε₀)

Maxwell's Equations

∮E⋅dS = q/ε₀
∮B⋅dS = 0
∮E⋅dl = -d/dt∮B⋅dS
∮B⋅dl = μ₀[I + ε₀(dΦE/dt)]

Electromagnetic Wave Properties

E = E₀sin(kz - ωt)
B = B₀sin(kz - ωt)
E/B = c or E₀/B₀ = c
v = 1/√(με)

Energy and Momentum in EM Waves

u = ε₀E²rms = B²rms/μ₀
uE = uB = u/2
p = U/c
Pressure = Intensity/c
