Electromagnetic Theory

  1. A uniform plane wave travelling in air is incident on the plane boundary between air and another dielectric medium with ∈r = 4. The reflection co-efficient for the normal incidence is—
    1. 0
    2. 0.5 ∠180º
    3. 0.333 ∠0º
    4. 0.333 ∠180º
Correct Option: D

Reflection coefficient in terms of dielectric constant is given as

Γ =
r2 - √r1
=
4 - √1
r2 + √r14 + √1

=
2 - 1
=
1
= 0.333 ∠0°
2 + 13

Hence alternative (D) is the correct choice.
