Transmitting antenna and coordinate system.
A straight transmitting antenna aligned parallel to the y-axis emits an electromagnetic wave that travels through vacuum in the positive x-direction. At a distant point along the positive x-axis at a specific instant, the electric field vector E points in the positive y-direction. Which of the following vector diagrams correctly represents the orientations of the electric field vector E, magnetic field vector B, and velocity vector v at this point and instant?
