Question:

The 19th-century inventor Nikola Tesla proposed to transmit electric power via sinusoidal electromagnetic waves. Suppose power is to be transmitted in a beam of cross-sectional area 100 m2. What electric- and magnetic-field amplitudes are required to transmit an amount of power comparable to that handled by modem transmission lines (that carry voltages and currents of the order of 500 kV and 1000 A)?
