Index of refraction of plane is higher than that of coating

Reference no: EM13657066

A possible means for making an airplane invisible to radar is to coat the plane with an antireflective polymer. If radar waves have a wavelength of 2.80 cm and the index of refraction of the polymer is n = 1.30, how thick would you build the coating? (Suppose that the index of refraction of the plane is higher than that of the coating.)
