The equation of the electric field of an electromagnetic wave propagating through free space is given by : E=377sin⁡(6.27×103t−2.09×10−5x)N/CE=\sqrt{377} \sin \left(6.27 \times 10^{3} t-2.09 \times 10^{-5} x\right) \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{C}E=377​sin(6.27×103t−2.09×10−5x)N/C

The average power of the electromagnetic wave is (1α)W/m2\left(\frac{1}{\alpha}\right) \mathrm{W} / \mathrm{m}^{2}(α1​)W/m2. The value of α\alphaα is ____\_\_\_\_____

(Take μ0εo=377\sqrt{\frac{\mu_{0}}{\varepsilon_{o}}}=377εo​μ0​​​=377 in SI units)
