Question

    A charged particle oscillates about its mean equilibrium

    position with a frequency of 105 Hz. What is the frequency of the electromagnetic waves produced by the oscillator?
    A 10^3 Hz. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 10^2 Hz. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 10^7 Hz. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 10^5 Hz. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    About its mean position, the frequency of an electromagnetic wave produced by the oscillator is the same as the frequency of a charged particle oscillating, i.e., 105 Hz.
