The magnitude of the electric field of a plane electromagnetic wave travelling in free space is $E$. If $\mu_0$ and $\varepsilon_0$ are respectively permeability and permittivity of the free space,then the magnitude of magnetic field of the wave is

  • A
    $E \mu_0 \varepsilon_0$
  • B
    $\frac{E}{\mu_0 \varepsilon_0}$
  • C
    $E \sqrt{\mu_0 \varepsilon_0}$
  • D
    $\frac{E}{\sqrt{\mu_0 \varepsilon_0}}$
