Question: For free space show that electromagnetic ( EM ) wave is transverse in nature. Show that for free space, the total outward flux of EM

For free space show that electromagnetic (EM) wave is transverse in nature.

Show that for free space, the total outward flux of EM energy through surface S bounding volume V is equal to the rate of loss of EM energy from the volume V.A laser beam of 2 mm diameter has average power of 20GW. Calculate the peak values of electric and magnetic fields in the laser beam.
