Q72 / 90 · JEE Main 2018 (08 Apr) · Physics

An EM wave from air enters a medium. The electric fields are E→1=E01x^cos⁡2πvzc-t  in air and E→2=E02x^cos⁡k2z-ctin medium, where the wave number k and frequency v refer to their values in the air. The medium is non-magnetic. If ϵr1 and ϵr2 refer to relative permittivities of air and medium respectively, which of the following options, is correct?

  • A
    ϵr1ϵr2 =12
  • B
    ϵr1ϵr2 =4
  • C
    ϵr1ϵr2 =2
  • Correct answer
    D
    ϵr1ϵr2 =14

Solution

∨air∨med=cc/2=2=μ0ϵ0μr2ϵr2μ0ϵ0μr1ϵr1 

ϵr1ϵr2=14

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
