Energy carried by an EM wave coming through the air can be used lo light a bulb that is not connected to a ba electric outlet. Suppose a recelving antenna is attached to a bulb and the bulb is found to dissipate a maximum the antenna is aligned with the electric field coming from a distant source. The wavelength of the source is larg antenna length. When the antenna is rotated so it makes an angle of

with the incoming electric field, what dissipated by the bulb?
