Assertion : The pairs Ex, By and Ey, Bx, components of space and time varying electric field \((\vec{E})\) and magnetic field \((\vec{B})\) can generate a plane electromagnetic wave travelling along the Z-direction.
Reason : Electromagnetic waves propagate in the direction of vector \(\vec{E} \times \vec{B}\).
Reason : Electromagnetic waves propagate in the direction of vector \(\vec{E} \times \vec{B}\).
