You are a NASA mission specialist on your first flight aboard the space shuttle. Thanks to your extensive training in physics, you have been assigned to evaluate the performance of a new radio transmitter on board the International Space Station (ISS). Perched on the shuttle's moveable arm, you aim a sensitive detector at the ISS, which is a distance of 2.3 kilometer away. You find that the electric-field amplitude of the radio waves coming from the ISS transmitter is 9.0 × 102 V/m and that the frequency of the waves is 257 MHz.

Obtain the intensity of the radio wave at your location.

Obtain the magnetic-field amplitude of the wave at your location.

Obtain the total power output of the ISS radio transmitter.
