उत्तर
a, b and c
Explanation:
a. The direction of propagation of an electromagnetic wave is always along the direction of vector product `vecE xx vecB`. Refer to figure.

`vecB = Bhatj = B(hatk xx hati) = E/c (hatk xx hati)`
= `1/c [k xx Ehati] = 1/c [hatk xx vecE]` .....`("as" E/B = c)`
b. `vecE = Ehati = cB(hatj xx hatk) = c(Bhatj xx hatk) = c(vecB xx hatk)`
c. `hatk * vecE = hatk * (Ehati)` = 0, `veck * vecB = hatk * (Bhatj)` = 0
d. `hatk xx vecE = hatk xx (Ehati) = E(hatk xx hati) = Ehatj` and `hatk xx vecB = hatk xx (Bhatj) = B(hatk xx hatj) = - Bhati`
