\mathrm{\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{av}}=\frac{\mathrm{P}}{4 \pi \mathrm{R}^2}=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_0 \mathrm{cE}_0^2 \\ & \therefore \mathrm{E}_0 \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{P}}{2 \pi \mathrm{R}^2 \varepsilon_0 \mathrm{c}}}=\sqrt{\frac{3}{2 \times 3.14 \times 100 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12 \times 3 \times 10^8}}}=1.34 \mathrm{~V} / \mathrm{m} \end{aligned}}
