2. The number of electric field lines crossing a closed surface: -> Is proportional to the charge enclosed.
3. An LC circuit behaves as: -> A simple harmonic oscillator
4. A solenoid: -> None of the above
5. The electric portion of an electromagnetic wave traveling in vacuum can be written as Ey = 50 cos(2π × 10-15 t – 2π x) with Ez = Ex = 0, where t is measured in seconds. What is the frequency f of the electric field? ->
