Problem

In a plane electromagnetic wave, the directions of electric field and magnetic field are represented by

\hat{k}

and

2\hat{i} - 2\hat{j}

, respectively. What is the unit vector along direction of propagation of the wave. a.

\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\hat{i} + \hat{j})

\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\hat{j} + \hat{k})

\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}(\hat{i} + 2\hat{j})

\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}(2\hat{i} + \hat{j})
