Phase Relationship of Electric Fields

The document discusses electromagnetic waves and how the x, y, and z components of the electric and magnetic fields are related. Specifically, it notes that the magnetic field in the x-direction (Hx) is out of phase with the electric field in the y-direction (Ey), while the magnetic field in the y-direction (Hy) is in phase with the electric field in the x-direction (Ex). This relationship between the orthogonal electric and magnetic field components is a key characteristic of electromagnetic waves.
