Practice question
Question
Which of the following statements about the electromagnetic spectrum is true?
Explanation
**Poynting vector** S = E×B/μ₀ gives energy flow (W/m²), magnitude S = E B/μ₀, average = E₀ B₀/(2μ₀) = intensity, direction of propagation, showing energy transport perpendicular to E and B. The document explains that the boundaries between different regions of the electromagnetic spectrum are not sharply defined, and there are overlaps. Using c = fλ, E₀/B₀ = c, I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, and spectrum classification λ = c/f, evaluation yields Boundaries are not sharply defined, illustrating EM wave transverse nature and Maxwell's displacement current concept.
