-
A.
Hertzian waves
chosen
Hertzian waves are early experimentally demonstrated electromagnetic waves that confirmed James Clerk Maxwell’s theory of electromagnetism and paved the way for modern radio communication.
-
B.
Kennelly–Heaviside layer theory
Kennelly–Heaviside layer theory is an early 20th-century scientific model proposing the existence of a conductive layer in the upper atmosphere that reflects radio waves, helping to explain long-distance radio communication.
-
C.
Poynting vector
The Poynting vector is a fundamental quantity in electromagnetism that represents the directional energy flux (power per unit area) carried by an electromagnetic field.
-
D.
Huygens–Fresnel principle
The Huygens–Fresnel principle is a fundamental concept in wave optics that explains how every point on a wavefront acts as a source of secondary wavelets whose interference determines the wave’s subsequent propagation and diffraction.
-
E.
Wavelengths
Wavelengths is the Toronto International Film Festival’s avant-garde and experimental cinema program, showcasing innovative and boundary-pushing works in film and video.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
