A plane electromagnetic wave is propagating along the direction (i + j)/(2), with its polarization along the direction k. The correct form of the magnetic field of the wave would be (here B₀ is an appropriate constant):

(A) B₀(i - j)/(2) cos (ω t - k(i + j)/(2))

(B) B₀(i + j)/(2) cos (ω t - k(i + j)/(2))

(C) B₀(j - i)/(2) cos (ω t + k(i + j)/(2))

(D) B₀ k cos (ω t - k(i + j)/(2))
