A uniform plane wave is generated from a ham radio antenna on earth. The take off angle is 60 degrees (the angle ffrom ground going up is 60 deg). Using simple trigonometry the angle if incidence with the ionosphere would be 30 degrees. Assume the F layer of the ionosphere is 300 km above the earth. The wave frequency from the transmitter is 21 MHz. WIll this wave refract off the ionosphere and end up somewhere on earth? If yes, what is the distance it travels?
In an interference experiment using a monochromatic source emitting light of wavelength 1, the fringes are produced by two long, narrow slits separated by a distance d. The fringes are formed on a screen which is situated at a distance D >> d.Write down an expression for the fringe width w. Please use "*" for products (e.g. B*A), "/" for ratios (e.g. B/A) and the usual "+" and "-" signs as appropriate. Use "lambda" (without the quotes) for 1 in the equation box. For example, use d*lambda for d2. Please use the "Display response" button to check you entered the answer you expect. w=
