A plane wave of unknown frequency is normally incident in air upon the surface of a
perfect conductor. Using an electric-field meter, it is determined that the total electric field in the
air medium is always zero when measured at a distance of 2.5m from the conductor surface.
Moreover, no such nulls were observed at distances closer to the conductor. What is the
frequency of the incident wave?
