Question 1

What does the reflection coefficient R represent?

  • Energy transmitted
  • Energy reflected
  • Energy absorbed

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember, it's about what happens to the wave energy!

Question 2

True or False: If Z1 = Z2, then there is no reflection.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how same media interact.
