I am trying to understand the phenomenon why electric and magnetic field is represented in the form of waves in the propagation of electromagnetic radiations. Electric and magnetic fields are in the form of waves as is shown in picture

    Have you looked in any textbooks on E&M? There should be a whole chapter on the subject.... – Kyle Kanos Aug 26 '17 at 13:36
  • I don't understand your question. Are you asking why E and B fields satisfy the wave equation? I'm curious: According to your understanding, how should em radiation be represented? – Semoi Aug 26 '17 at 13:55
  • Maybe it would helpful for you first to read [What are photons, EM radiation an EM waves]](http://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/90646/what-is-the-relation-between-electromagnetic-wave-and-photon/253957#253957). – HolgerFiedler Aug 26 '17 at 16:31
