Explain in your own words the interaction between the electric and magnetic fields that make up a light wave.
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

They oscillates perpendicularly to one another, the oscillation of one field generates the other field.

Explanation:

In a light wave, an oscillating electric field of a light wave produces a magnetic field, and the magnetic field also oscillates to produce an electric field. The magnetic field and the electric field of a light wave both oscillates perpendicularly to one another. The resultant energy and direction of the wave generated as a result of these oscillating fields is propagated perpendicularly to both fields.
