Electromagnetic Wave

thingiverse

Electromagnetic radiation is composed of self-propagating waves of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that can be visualized as moving forward in a wave-like manner. In this illustration, we see a linearly polarized electromagnetic wave traveling from left to right across the diagram. The electric field vector points vertically upward, while the magnetic field vector runs horizontally along its length. It is essential to note that these two vectors remain in perfect synchronization and are consistently angled at 90 degrees with respect to each other as part of the intrinsic properties defining electromagnetic radiation waves.
