Order the steps of EM wave generation by an accelerating charge

Exercise and reference answers

Steps
  1. Charge accelerates, creating a changing electric field
  2. Changing E-field induces a changing magnetic field
  3. Changing B-field induces a changing E-field further away
  4. The coupled E and B fields propagate outward as a wave
  5. Wave travels in vacuum at c = 3×10⁸ m/s
