As per the given question,
frequency =ω
wave number
amplitude
Let the speed of light is c,
i) Amplitude of the reflected wave
Speed of the wave (v)=
ii) We know that, wave number ,
In the reflection, the angle of incident and angle of reflection always be same.
So, the wave number must be same,
so, angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence θi, and the magnitude of the incident and reflected wave vectors are equal (i.e., the incident and reflected waves have the same wavelength λi = λr),
So,
Hence,
