The Poynting Vector is a vector that corresponds to the power generated by an Electromagnetic Wave.
Definition
Defined in free space, the Poynting vector is given by:
Formula - 1
Poynting vector in free space
Formula - 2
Average Intensity from an Electromagnetic Wave
Terms
- = Poynting vector (in )
- = Electric Field (in )
- = Amplitude of electric field
- = Magnetic Field (in )
- = Amplitude of magnitude field
- = Speed of light
- = Permeability of free space
- = Permittivity of free space
