Question:

A microwave generator can produce microwaves at any frequency between 10 GHz and 20 GHz. As Figure P16.51 shows, the microwaves are aimed, through a small hole, into a "microwave cavity" that consists of a 10-cm-long cylinder with reflective ends. 

m Microwaves FIGURE P16.51 10 cm

a. Which frequencies between 10 GHz and 20 GHz will create standing waves in the microwave cavity? 

b. For which of these frequencies is the cavity midpoint an antinode?
