A wave is traveling from one medium to another. If the wave is partially transmitted and partially reflected from the boundary, what will happen to the amplitude of the reflected wave?

Question

anonymous · Answer

a.it will have less amplitude then the incident wave.
b.it will have the same amplitude as the incident wave.
c. it will have more amplitude then the incident wave.
d.its amplitude will be zero.

anonymous · Answer

if the wave is a electromagnetic wave the amplitude will decrease(practically) and how much it decreases depends on surface properties

anonymous · Answer

its amplitude as will as intensity will get reduced acc. to the property of suface where it falls...
