    From the synopsis provided we get relation of cutoff frequency

    fc =
    Vcm
    =
    3 × 108
    2a2 × (0.1)

    = 1.5 × 1010
    = 15 GHz

    Correct Option: C

    For measurement of far field or secondary we apply following relation

    r ≥
    2d2
    λ

    d = antenna aperture, r = radius Substituting the value
    r ≥
    2 × (2.4)2
    = 153.6 m
    0.075

    So the closest answer is 150 m.

    From Snell’s law
    n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2
    n1 = √ε0 (free space or air)
    n2 = √εrε0
    θ1 → incident angle with normal
    θ2 → transmitted angle with normal
    ε0 sin (45°) = √εrε0 sin 30°

    ⇒    
    ε0
    =
    εrε0
    εr = √2 ⇒ εr = 2
