State what the principle of superposition means.
An electromagnetic wave with wavelength $0.026\,\text{m}$ in free space is directed normally onto an aluminium sheet, as shown in Fig. 4.1. The wave is reflected at the aluminium sheet and a stationary wave is formed in the region between the transmitter and the sheet. Explain how the stationary wave, including its nodes and antinodes, is formed.
Calculate the frequency of this electromagnetic wave.
State the main region of the electromagnetic spectrum to which the wave belongs.
Determine the distance from a node to the adjacent antinode.
