Here, electromagnetic field compares electric and magnetic fields, essential for the behavior of charged particles and the transmission of electromagnetic waves.
Here, this cos(y2 +5t) option lacks spatial dependence on a coordinate like x, y, z. The absence of spatial dependence means it does not satisfy the wave equation.
This involves a cosine function with respect to the spatial coordinates y2 and also includes a temporal component (y2).
Option 4 is correct.
