Astraw placed in a clear glass of water appears to break at the water’s surface. which explains this effect? a). the water is transparent, but the glass is translucent. scattering causes the straw to appear broken. b). the water is transparent, but the straw is opaque. diffuse reflection causes the straw to appear broken. c).the water and the glass are transparent. refraction causes the straw to appear broken. d). the water and the glass are translucent. the broken appearance of the straw is a mirage.

Suppose that an electromagnetic wave which is linearly polarized along the x−axis is propagating in vacuum along the z−axis. the wave is incident on a conductor which is placed at z > 0 region of the space. the conductor has conductivity σ, magnetic permeability µ and electric permittivity ε. (a) find the characteristic time for the free charge density which dissipates at the conductor. (b) write the maxwell equations and derive the wave equation for a plane wave propagating in a conductor. (c) find the attenuation distance at which the incident amplitude reduces to e ^−1 of its initial value. (d) find the electric and magnetic fields inside the conductor. 8 (e) find the power loss per area of the incident electromagnetic wave at the surface of conductor.
