\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}=20 \sin w\left[t-\frac{x}{c}\right]

E _o=20
\begin{aligned} & \text { Energy density }=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_0 \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{o}}^2 \\ & =\frac{1}{2} \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times 400 \\ & =200 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times 5 \times 10^{-4} \\ & =8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times 10^{-4} \times 1000 \\ & \text { Energy }=8.85 \times 10^{-13} \mathrm{~J} \end{aligned}
