A plane wave in free space with \vec{E}=(\sqrt{\pi})(10.0 \hat{x}+11.8 \hat{y}) \exp \left[j\left(4 \pi \times 10^{8} t-k z\right)\right] .where \hat{x} and y are unit vectors in the x and y-directions, respectively, is incident normally on a semi-infinite block of ice as shown in Figure. For ice, \mu=\mu_{0}, \sigma=0 \text { and } \varepsilon=9_{ e 0}(1- j 0.001).

(a) Calculate the average power density associated with the incident wave.

(b) Calculate the skin depth in ice.

(c) Estimate the average power density at a distance 5 times the skin depth in the ice block, measured from the interface.
