As we have learned

Poynting Vector -

underset{S}{
ightarrow} = frac{underset{E}{
ightarrow} 	imes underset{B}{
ightarrow}}{mu_{o}}

- wherein

It is total energy flowing perpendicularly per second per unit area into the surface in free space.

 

\vec{S}=\bar{E}\times \bar{B}

\vec{S}=V\hat{i}

\vec{E}= E\hat{j}

\hat{i}= \hat{j}\times \hat{k} 

\vec{B}= B \hat{k}, + z- direction

 

 

 


Option 1)

— y direction

This is incorrect

Option 2)

 + z direction

This is correct

Option 3)

 — z direction

This is incorrect

Option 4)

— x direction

This is incorrect
