Relative Nature of Electric Permittivity and Magnetic Permeability of Electromagnetic Wave

Abstract: This research is about the special theory of relativity on electric permittivity and magnetic permeability of electromagnetic wave. For this, Four Maxwell's electromagnetic equations play an important role. James Clerk Maxwell suggested that the light travel as electromagnetic wave which require no material medium for propagation. The speed of light (C) in free space is always constant and is independent of the speed of source or observer or the relative motion of the inertial system and has velocity 'C' given by. So velocity of electromagnetic waves depend on obsolute magnetic permeability and obsolute electric permittivity of free space. These two physical quantities rely on relative motion of inertial system. So are not obsolute quantity but are dependent upon the relative motion between the observer and the phenomenon observed. Electric and magnetic field of a charge rely upon the value of obsolute electric permittivity of medium. Concisely, are variant quantity. Consequently electric and magnetic field get relative for electromagnetic wave. That is electric and magnetic field depend on relative motion of inertial system for electromagnetic waves.Published By: Lattice Science Publication (LSP) © Copyright: All rights reserved
