Thanks. I was curious if photons traveling along fiber optics behaved like electrons tracking along a metal wire. I was thinking about undersea cables and started wondering if fiber optic cables would be detectable by sea creatures such as sharks. No particular reason, just something that popped...
Does light traveling through a fiber optic cable generate any sort of detectable electromagnetic field? Please forgive the stupid question. It’s something that popped into mind recently and google hasn’t adequately answered for me. I’m not a scientist or physicist. :blushing:
