Mar 9, 2022 at 13:43 | comment | added | Asher2211 | @jensenpaull I have considered the effect of magnetic field. If the magnetic field amplitude of the two waves are equal say $B_0$, the resultant would be $\sqrt{2}B_0$(magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other), so there will be no change in the energy stored in the magnetic field. | |
