Question

E-M standing waves are set up in a microwave oven, between twoparallel conducting walls, separated by 1.2 meters. What isthe longest wavelength standing wave that can exist in thisconfiguration? What is the corresponding frequency? Where is the magnitude of vector E zero? Where is the magnitude of vector E at its maximum? Where are the node(s) and antinode(s) in the magneticfield?

Explanation / Answer

   the longest wavelength is     = 1.2 m    we know that    c = f    f = c /      = ....... Hz    the magnitude of vector E zero will be inthe magnetic field    the magnitude of vector E will be maximum atthe antinodes
