Ok, dumb question, I know. But it's been bugging me, and I can't find a straight answer anywhere, so here it goes:
In a classical electromagnetic wave, where the electric field points upward, will the magentic field point AT me or AWAY from me?
I've seen textbooks depict them both ways - can it really be both ways, or is it just sloppyness on the part of the drafters?
All responses appreciated.
