Competence to develop:
The student remembers the concepts of wave physics and
electromagnetism, to determine parameters and general
characteristics of electromagnetic waves, using concepts and
mathematical methods for the solution of application exercises.
Topics to develop:
- Electromagnetic waves.
- Parameters of electromagnetic waves.
- Electrical permittivity and magnetic permeability.
- Depth of penetration of the waves.
Steps, phases of the learning strategy to develop
Dear student, this activity called Step 1 is individual, for your
development you must follow the 5 acts presented below:
Act 1: Explore the academic resource "Electromagnetic waves in
free space" described at the beginning of the "Activities to
develop" section of this document.
Act 2: Download the “Annex 1 - Delivery format - Step 1” found in
the collaborative learning environment in the "Activities guide and
evaluation rubric - Step 1 - to make the course recognition"
folder.
Act 3: Answer the 6 introductory questions that are proposed in the
"Activities to develop" section of this document.
Act 4: Each student must complete the application in its individual
delivery format, verifying the requirements of the evaluation rubric.
You can share your progress and questions in the "Step 1" forum.
Act 5: Submit the requested work in the Monitoring and Evaluation
Environment.
Activities to develop
Explore within the Knowledge Environment, in Unit 1, the
bibliographical references of Quesada, M., & Maroto, J. (2014), pages
49-60 and the video of Gutiérrez, W. (2017), and solve the following
questions:

1. What is an electromagnetic wave?

2. What is electrical permittivity ε and magnetic permeability μ of a
medium?
3. In a vacuum, what is the value of the electric permittivity ε o and the
magnetic permeability μo ?
4. If the relationship between relative and absolute electric
permittivity in a medium is ε =ε r ε o, what is for the absolute
magnetic permeability μ and the relative μr ?

Use of The APA standards are the style of organization and

references presentation of information most used in the area of
social sciences. These are published under a manual
that allows you to have access to the ways in which a
scientific article should be presented. Here you can find
 the most relevant aspects of the sixth edition of the APA
Standards Manual, such as references, citations,
preparation and presentation of tables and figures,
headings and seriation, among others. You can check
how to implement them by going to
http://normasapa.com/
In the agreement 029 of December 13, 2013, article
99, the mistakes that infringe upon the academic order,
among others, are the following: paragraph e) “To
plagiarize is to present as your own work the whole or
part of a writing, report, task or document of invention
performed by another person. It also implies the use of
cites or lack of references, or includes cites where there
is no coincidence between them and the reference” and
paragraph f)”To reproduce, or copy for profit,
Plagiarism
educational resources or results of research products,
policy
which have intellectual rights reserved for the
University”.
The academic punishments that the student will face
are:
a) In case of academic fraud proved in the academic
work or evaluation, the score achieved will be zero
(0.0) without leading to disciplinary measures.
b) In case of plagiarism proved in the academic work of
any nature, the score achieved will be zero (0.0),
without leading to disciplinary measures.
