Sometimes this energy is obvious, such as in the warmth of the summer sun. Other times it is subtle, such as the unfelt energy of gamma rays, which can destroy living cells. Electromagnetic waves can bring energy into a system by virtue of their #strong[electric and magnetic fields]. These fields can exert forces and move charges in the system and, thus, do work on them. If the frequency of the electromagnetic wave is the same as the natural frequencies of the system (such as microwaves at the resonant frequency of water molecules), the transfer of energy is much more efficient. #notebox("Note", rgb("#8a94a6"), rgb("#556666"), rgb("#f7f8fa"))[ #emph[Connections: Waves and Particles] The behavior of electromagnetic radiation clearly exhibits wave characteristics. But we shall find in later modules that at high frequencies, electromagnetic radiation also exhibits particle characteristics. These particle characteristics will be used to explain more of the properties of the electromagnetic spectrum and to introduce the formal study of modern physics. Another startling discovery of modern physics is that particles, such as electrons and protons, exhibit wave characteristics. This simultaneous sharing of wave and particle properties for all submicroscopic entities is one of the great symmetries in nature. ] #figure(figph[The propagation of two electromagnetic waves is shown in three dimensional planes.

With electromagnetic waves, larger #math.equation(block: false, alt: "E")[$E$]-fields and #math.equation(block: false, alt: "B")[$B$]-fields exert larger forces and can do more work.]) But there is energy in an electromagnetic wave, whether it is absorbed or not. Once created, the fields carry energy away from a source. If absorbed, the field strengths are diminished and anything left travels on. Clearly, the larger the strength of the electric and magnetic fields, the more work they can do and the greater the energy the electromagnetic wave carries. A wave’s energy is proportional to its #strong[amplitude] squared (#math.equation(block: false, alt: "E squared")[$E^(2)$] or #math.equation(block: false, alt: "B squared")[$B^(2)$]). This is true for waves on guitar strings, for water waves, and for sound waves, where amplitude is proportional to pressure. In electromagnetic waves, the amplitude is the #strong[maximum field strength] of the electric and magnetic fields. () Thus the energy carried and the #strong[intensity] #math.equation(block: false, alt: "I")[$I$] of an electromagnetic wave is proportional to #math.equation(block: false, alt: "E squared")[$E^(2)$] and #math.equation(block: false, alt: "B squared")[$B^(2)$]. In fact, for a continuous sinusoidal electromagnetic wave, the average intensity #math.equation(block: false, alt: "I sub ave")[$I_("ave")$] is given by #math.equation(block: true, alt: "I sub ave equals the fraction cε sub 0 E 0 2 over 2 ,")[$I_("ave") = frac("cε"_(0) E_(0)^(2), 2) ,$] where #math.equation(block: false, alt: "c")[$c$] is the speed of light, #math.equation(block: false, alt: "ε sub 0")[$ε_(0)$] is the permittivity of free space, and #math.equation(block: false, alt: "E sub 0")[$E_(0)$] is the maximum electric field strength; intensity, as always, is power per unit area (here in #math.equation(block: false, alt: "W/m squared")[$"W/m"^(2)$]). The average intensity of an electromagnetic wave #math.equation(block: false, alt: "I sub ave")[$I_("ave")$] can also be expressed in terms of the magnetic field strength by using the relationship #math.equation(block: false, alt: "B equals E / c")[$B = E / c$], and the fact that #math.equation(block: false, alt: "ε sub 0 equals 1 / μ sub 0 c squared")[$ε_(0) = 1 / μ_(0) c^(2)$], where #math.equation(block: false, alt: "μ sub 0")[$μ_(0)$] is the permeability of free space. Algebraic manipulation produces the relationship #math.equation(block: true, alt: "I sub ave equals the fraction cB 0 2 over 2μ sub 0 ,")[$I_("ave") = frac("cB"_(0)^(2), 2μ_(0)) ,$] where #math.equation(block: false, alt: "B sub 0")[$B_(0)$] is the maximum magnetic field strength. One more expression for #math.equation(block: false, alt: "I sub ave")[$I_("ave")$] in terms of both electric and magnetic field strengths is useful. Substituting the fact that #math.equation(block: false, alt: "c times B sub 0 equals E sub 0")[$c ⋅ B_(0) = E_(0)$], the previous expression becomes #math.equation(block: true, alt: "I sub ave equals the fraction E sub 0 B sub 0 over 2μ sub 0 .")[$I_("ave") = frac(E_(0) B_(0), 2μ_(0)) .$] Whichever of the three preceding equations is most convenient can be used, since they are really just different versions of the same principle: Energy in a wave is related to amplitude squared. Furthermore, since these equations are based on the assumption that the electromagnetic waves are sinusoidal, peak intensity is twice the average; that is, #math.equation(block: false, alt: "I sub 0 equals 2 I sub ave")[$I_(0) = 2 I_("ave")$]. #examplebox("Example 1")[Calculate Microwave Intensities and Fields][ On its highest power setting, a certain microwave oven projects 1.00 kW of microwaves onto a 30.0 by 40.0 cm area.

Once the intensity is known, we can use the equations below to find the field strengths asked for in parts (b) and (c). Solution for (a) Entering the given power into the definition of intensity, and noting the area is 0.300 by 0.400 m, yields #math.equation(block: true, alt: "I equals the fraction P over A equals the fraction 1 . 00 kW over 0 . 300 m times 0 . 400 m .")[$I = frac(P, A) = frac(1 "."
