The property which is not of an electromagnetic wave travelling in free space is that:

  1. A
    they are transverse in nature.
  2. B
    the energy density in electric field is equal to energy density in magnetic field.
  3. C
    they travel with a speed equal to .
  4. D
    they originate from charges moving with uniform speed.

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

- A, B, C: These are standard properties of EM waves.D: Incorrect. EM waves are produced by accelerated charges. A charge moving with uniform speed produces a magnetic field but does not radiate EM waves.
