1.) Wave Polarization Determine the polarization of the following waves, i.e., linear, circular or elliptical, and propagation direction. If any wave is linearly polarized, determine the inclination angle. For non-linear polarization, determine the rotation direction. Draw a polarization diagram in each case (i.e. a projection of the wave in the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation). a.) Ē(z, t) = £3cos(wt – kz) + ÿ3cos(wt – kz) b.) Ē(2, t) = &2cos(wt + k2) + ŷ2cos(wt + kz) c.) E (z, t) = r5cos(wt – kz) – ý3cos(wt – )
