Hiya,
Given that the electric field vector of an EM wave is described as:
[tex] E=E_0[1+\cos(\Omega t)]\cos(\omega t) [/tex]
How would one go about finding the energy carried by this wave? On another note, what's the actual frequency of the wave that can be used in [tex] E=hf [/tex]? Graphed in a CAS, this wave actually looks like that of circularly polarised radiation ("packets" are discernible).
Thanks
