Which considerations are used to calculate a windchill factor?

Suppose that an electromagnetic wave which is linearly polarized along the x−axis is propagating in vacuum along the z−axis. the wave is incident on a conductor which is placed at z > 0 region of the space. the conductor has conductivity σ, magnetic permeability µ and electric permittivity ε. (a) find the characteristic time for the free charge density which dissipates at the conductor. (b) write the maxwell equations and derive the wave equation for a plane wave propagating in a conductor. (c) find the attenuation distance at which the incident amplitude reduces to e ^−1 of its initial value. (d) find the electric and magnetic fields inside the conductor. 8 (e) find the power loss per area of the incident electromagnetic wave at the surface of conductor.

At what time will the interfering waves have an amplitudeof zero?

The brightest star in the night sky in the northern hemisphere is sirius. its distance from earth is estimated to be 8.7 light years. a light year is the distance light travels in one year. light travels at a speed of 3.00 × 108 m/s. calculate the distance from earth to sirius in miles.
