Question
how do the magnetic and electrical components of electromagnetic waves travel in relation to each other?
at right angles
toward each other
in a circular motion
parallel to each other
Brief Explanations
Electromagnetic waves consist of electric and magnetic fields. These fields are perpendicular (at right angles) to each other. This is a fundamental property of electromagnetic waves as described by Maxwell's equations and the nature of electromagnetic radiation.
