A vector wave with components Sx = a1cos(wt - kz), Sy = a2(wt - kz - j), Sz = 0 runs along the z axis. Is this wave transverse? At what phase difference is the wave linearly polarized? What is the orientation of the vibration plane? Under what conditions is a wave circularly polarized? What is the direction of rotation of the vector S?
