The refractive indices of the core and cladding of an optical fiber are 1.50 and 1.48 respectively. The critical propagation angle. Which is defined as the maximum angle that the light beam makes with the axis of the optical fiber to achieve the total internal reflection, (rounded off to two decimal places) is $\_\_\_\_$ degree.
An antenna with a directive gain of 6 dB is radiating a total power of 16 kw . The amplitude of the electric field in free space at a distance of 8 km from the antenna in the direction of 6 dB gain(rounded off to three decimal places is$\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$.
A standard air-filled rectangular waveguide with dimensions $a=8 \mathrm{~cm}, b=4 \mathrm{~cm}$, operates at 3.4 GHz . For the dominant mode of wave propagation, the phase velocity of the signal is $v_p$. The value (rounded off to two decimal places) of $v_p / c$, where $c$ denotes the velocity of light, is $\_\_\_\_$ .
