Consider a rectangular coordinate system $(x, y, z)$ with unit vectors $a_x, a_y$ and $a_z$. A plane wave traveling in the region $z \geq 0$ with electric field vector $E=10 \cos \left(2 \times 10^8 t+\beta z\right) a_y$ is incident normally on the plane at $z=0$, where $\beta$ is the phase constant. The region $z \geq 0$ is in free space and the region $z<0$ is filled with a lossless medium (permittivity $\varepsilon=\varepsilon_0$ permeability $\mu=4 \mu_0$, where $\varepsilon_0=8.85 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{F} / \mathrm{m}$ and $\mu_0=4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{H} / \mathrm{m}$ ). The value of the reflection coefficient is

A

$\frac{2}{3}$

B

$\frac{3}{5}$

C
