The peak electric field produced by the radiation coming from the $80\, W$ bulb at a distance of $10\, m$ is $\frac{x}{10} \sqrt{\frac{\mu_{0} c }{\pi}} \,\frac{ V }{ m }$. The efficiency of the bulb is $10\, \%$ and it is a point source. The value of $x$ is ...... .

The magnetic field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by $\vec B = B_0 \sin(kx + \omega t) \hat j \ T$. The expression for the corresponding electric field will be (where $c$ is the speed of light).

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: $A$ time-varying electric field is a source of a changing magnetic field and vice-versa. Thus,a disturbance in an electric or magnetic field creates $EM$ waves.
Statement $II$: In a material medium,the $EM$ wave travels with speed $v = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_{0} \varepsilon_{0}}}$.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The sun delivers $10^{3} \,W m^{-2}$ of electromagnetic flux on the Earth's surface. The total power that is incident on a roof of dimensions $6 \,m \times 30 \,m$ is . . . . . . .

$A$ beam of light travelling along the $X$-axis is described by the electric field $E_{y} = 900 \sin \omega(t - x/c)$. The ratio of the electric force to the magnetic force on a charge $q$ moving along the $Y$-axis with a speed of $3 \times 10^{7} \, m/s$ will be:
[Given: speed of light $c = 3 \times 10^{8} \, m/s$]
