Which is correct for the electric field component after the electromagnetic wave is reflected perpendicular to the plane surface separating the two dielectric mediums?
If the incident electric field component is 3 in the x direction, the reflected electric field component can be 5 in the x direction. If the incident electric field component is 3 in the x direction, the reflected electric field component is 3 in the x direction. If the incident electric field component is 3 in the x direction, the reflected electric field component is 3 in the -x direction. The reflected field component depends on the impedance values of the two environments.
