Homework Statement
An electric dipole antenna used to transmit radio waves is oriented vertically.
At a point due north of the transmitter, how should a second electric dipole antenna be oriented to serve as a receiver?
answer=vertical (since it should be aligned with the electric field, which is also vertical). I am not sure if this is right.
At a point due north of the transmitter, how should a MAGNETIC dipole antenna be oriented to serve as the receiver.
The magnetic field is along the east-west axis. So i don't understand why the receiver isn't along the east/west axis.
