A helium–neon laser emits a beam of circular cross section with a radius r and a power P. (a) Find the maximum electric field in the beam. (b) What total energy is contained in a length ℓ of the beam? (c) Find the momentum carried by a length ℓ of the beam.
Can there be a stable and unchanging electric or magnetic field in a region of space with no charges (and thus no currents)? Justify your answer using Maxwell’s equations.
Write the expressions for the electric and magnetic fields, with their corresponding directions, of an electromagnetic wave that has an electric field parallel to the z axis and whose amplitude is 300 V/m. Also, this wave has a frequency of 3.0 GHz and travels in the +y direction.
