Suppose a source of electromagnetic waves radiates uniformly in all directions in empty space where there are no absorption or interference effects. (a) Derive an expression for the intensity of the waves in terms of the distance. You may use the variables 'P' for power, and 'r' for distance from the source in your expression. Note: Click the red square root symbol to open the equation editor. I= 7 (b) The intensity is related to what power of the distance? 1 (c) The magnitudes of the electric and magnetic fields is related to what power of the distance? ! No, that's not the correct answer.
