A possible means for making an airplane radar-invisible is to coat the plane with an antireflective polymer. If radar waves have a wavelength of 3.84 cm, and the index of refraction of the polymer is n = 1.6, how thick would the coating be if a 180 phase change occurs at both surfaces?
 a. 24 mm
  c. 32 mm
  b. 7.5 mm
  d. 6.0 mm

Question 2

A puddle of water (n = 1.33) is covered with a very thin layer of oil (n = 1.20). How thick is the oil in the region that strongly reflects light with a wavelength of 497 nm?
 a. 207 nm
  c. 458 nm
  b. 550 nm
  d. 229 nm

It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
