In writing Eqs. 9.76 and 9.77, I tacitly assumed that the reflected and transmitted waves have the same polarization as the incident wave鈥攁long the x direction. Prove that this must be so. [Hint: Let the polarization vectors of the transmitted and reflected waves be
prove from the boundary conditions that .]
Consider a rectangular wave guide with dimensions . What TE modes will propagate in this waveguide if the driving frequency is ? Suppose you wanted to excite only one TE mode; what range of frequencies could you use? What are the corresponding wavelengths (in open space)?
Question:The index of refraction of diamond is 2.42. Construct the graph analogous to Fig. 9.16 for the air/diamond interface. (Assume .) In particular, calculate (a) the amplitudes at normal incidence, (b) Brewster's angle, and (c) the "crossover" angle, at which the reflected and transmitted amplitudes are equal.
Suppose
(This is, incidentally, the simplest possible spherical wave. For notational convenience, let role="math" localid="1658817164296" in your calculations.)
(a) Show that obeys all four of Maxwell's equations, in vacuum, and find the associated magnetic field.
(b) Calculate the Poynting vector. Average over a full cycle to get the intensity vector . (Does it point in the expected direction? Does it fall off like, as it should?)
(c) Integrate role="math" localid="1658817283737" over a spherical surface to determine the total power radiated. [Answer: ]
(a) Show that the skin depth in a poor conductor is (independent of frequency). Find the skin depth (in meters) for (pure) water. (Use the static values of and ; your answers will be valid, then, only at relatively low frequencies.)
(b) Show that the skin depth in a good conductor is (where 位 is the wavelength in the conductor). Find the skin depth (in nanometers) for a typical metal in the visible range , assuming and . Why are metals opaque?
(c) Show that in a good conductor the magnetic field lags the electric field by , and find the ratio of their amplitudes. For a numerical example, use the 鈥渢ypical metal鈥 in part (b).
