Problem 6.1 (P&W 9.3)


This problem is explained very nicely in a short publication by Peatross et. al in The Physics Teacher, called
Creating and Analyzing a Mirage. The document is available on Blackboard - its called Hint for problem
6.1 (P&W 9.3).

Problem 6.2 (P&W 9.6)


Here we simply have to fill out the matrices and perform a few multiplications:

1 2L 1 2L L 1 2L
          
1 L 1 0 1 L R L 1 L R R +L .
= = (1)
0 1 R2 1 0 1 R2 1 0 1 R2 1 2L
R
