Fig. Q7 depicts a beaker containing a block of glass on the bottom and water over it. The glass block contains a small air bubble at an unknown depth below the water surface. When viewed from above at an angle of 60o, the air bubble appears at a depth of 6.81 cm. What is the true depth of the air bubble?

Q8.

Consider a plane wave incident from the medium 1 ( μ1,ε1 ) onto the medium 2 ( μ2,ε2 ) . For an  oblique incidence, the reflection coefficients for the S and P waves are generally different from

Q9.

Consider a two-dimensional TM scattering problem. The incident electric field is polarized in the z-direction, which is parallel with a PEC cylinder that has a circular cross section. The incident wave is a plane wave propagating along the positive x-axis. The magnitude of electric field is  1. The wavelength is 1 meter, and the radius of the cylinder is 0.15 meters.  Let the center of the cylinder to be the  origin.  30  receivers  are  placed  uniformly  on  a  circle  of  5  meters  radius, concentrically with the cylinder.

Implementing the MoM in numerical software, such as Matlab, to calculate the magnitude and phase of scattered field received at the 30 receivers. Two plots are required to be presented, the vertical axes are the magnitude and phase of scattered field respectively, and the horizontal axis is the angles of the receivers.
