Question
how many transverse waves make up an electromagnetic wave? hint: study the image carefully. 2 1
Brief Explanations
An electromagnetic wave is composed of two transverse waves. One is the electric - field ($E$) wave and the other is the magnetic - field ($B$) wave. Both the electric and magnetic fields oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (which is the characteristic of a transverse wave).
