Question:medium

An electromagnetic wave passes from vacuum into a dielectric medium with relative electrical permittivity \(\dfrac{3}{2}\) and relative magnetic permeability \(\dfrac{8}{3}\). Then, its

Show Hint

For electromagnetic waves entering a new medium: \[ f=\text{constant} \] Always calculate the new speed first using \[ v=\frac{c}{\sqrt{\mu_r\varepsilon_r}} \] and then use \[ \lambda=\frac{v}{f}. \]
  • wavelength is doubled and frequency remains unchanged.
  • wavelength is doubled and frequency is halved.
  • wavelength is halved and frequency remains unchanged.
  • wavelength and frequency both will remain unchanged.
