| − | The phenomenon of EMR can be explained by two physical theories at the same time: the wave theory and the quantum theory.
| |
| − | EMR can be seen as a wave with time-varying electric (E) and magnetic fields (B). These vector fields have a sine waveform, are oriented at right angles at each other and oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave travel (Fig.).
