Core Logic

Since Id$I_d$ represents a physical current, its dimensions must match those of standard conduction electric current ([A]$[A]$ or [I]$[I]$).

Step 1: Dimensional Analysis

Let us verify using fundamental dimensions:

• Permittivity of free space [ε₀] = [M⁻¹ L⁻³ T⁴ A²]$[\epsilon_0] = [M^{-1} L^{-3} T^4 A^2]$
• Electric flux [ΦE] = [M L³ T⁻³ A⁻¹]$[\Phi_E] = [M L^3 T^{-3} A^{-1}]$
• Time [t] = [T]$[t] = [T]$

This confirms the quantity is dimensionally equivalent to Electric current.

Given that the wave propagates along the +x$+x$ direction:

Let us test the combination Ey$E_y$ and Bz$B_z$, which implies E = j$\hat{E} = \hat{j}$ and B = k$\hat{B} = \hat{k}$:

This cross product yields exactly the direction of propagation +x$+x$. Therefore, Ey$E_y$ and Bz$B_z$ are appropriate components representing the cross-orthogonal vectors of the EM wave.

Pattern Recognition

Always remember the cyclic relation i arrow j arrow k$\hat{i} \rightarrow \hat{j} \rightarrow \hat{k}$. Since propagation is i$\hat{i}$, our cross product must be j × k$\hat{j} \times \hat{k}$. Thus electric field along y$y$ matches magnetic field along z$z$.

• ε₀ = 9 × 10⁻¹²$\epsilon_0 = 9 \times 10^{-12}$
• π = 22/7$\pi = 22/7$
• I = 0.15~A$I = 0.15\mathrm{~A}$
• (dV)/(dt) = 7 × 10⁸~V/s$\frac{dV}{dt} = 7 \times 10^{8}\mathrm{~V/s}$

When energy is constant and volume scales down inversely by a factor of 4 (due to R²$\mathrm{R}^2$), the electric field strength must increase by a factor of √(4) = 2$\sqrt{4} = 2$ to maintain balance.
