So much for the Poynting vector of a position envelope. What are your
thoughts regarding the Poynting vector for a time varying envelope of
an electromagnetic wave? :-)



If the wire runs in the 'x' direction, the standing wave phasors
rotate only in the 'yz' plane.


A standing wave is an amplitude vs position envelope. An amplitude vs
time envelope is modulation! :-)
