Problem 4.197

A plane harmonic electromagnetic wave with plane polarization propagates in vacuum. The electric component of the wave has a strength amplitude Em=50mV/m,E_{m}=50 \mathrm{mV} / \mathrm{m}, the frequency is vv =100MHz=100 \mathrm{MHz}. Find: (a) the efficient value of the displacement current density; (b) the mean energy flow density averaged over an oscillation period.
