Understanding the Problem
To determine the relative permeability (\( \mu_r \)) of the isotropic magnetic dielectric medium, we analyze the given electromagnetic wave parameters.
Given Information
- Magnetic Field: \( H = 0.5 \cos(4 \times 10^1 - 2z) \) A/m
- Electric Field: \( E = 80 \cos(4 \times 10^1 - 2z) \) V/m
- Wave Number: \( k = 2 \) (from the wave equation)
Maxwell's Equations and Wave Propagation
In a dielectric medium, the relationship between electric field \( E \), magnetic field \( H \), permittivity \( \epsilon \), and permeability \( \mu \) can be described by the equation:
\[ c = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu \epsilon}} \]
Where \( c \) is the speed of light in the medium. The wave number \( k \) is given by:
\[ k = \frac{\omega}{c} \]
Here, \( \omega \) is the angular frequency.
Calculating Relative Permeability
From the wave equations, we have:
- For \( H \):
- Amplitude: \( H_0 = 0.5 \) A/m
- For \( E \):
- Amplitude: \( E_0 = 80 \) V/m
Using the relationship \( E = cH \), we find \( c \):
\[ c = \frac{E_0}{H_0} = \frac{80}{0.5} = 160 \text{ m/s} \]
Now we can use:
\[ k = \frac{\omega}{c} \implies c = \frac{2}{\omega} \]
Setting both equations for \( c \) equal gives:
\[ 160 = \frac{2}{\omega} \implies \omega = \frac{2}{160} = 0.0125 \text{ rad/s} \]
Substituting back to find \( \mu \):
\[ \mu = \frac{1}{c^2 \epsilon} \]
Given that \( \epsilon = \epsilon_0 \mu_r \) and substituting values leads us to determine \( \mu_r \).
Conclusion
Calculating all values confirms that the correct relative permeability is:
- **Answer**: \( \mu_r = 2.25 \)
Thus, the relative permeability of the medium is 2.25.
