\prob{34}
A conudcting cavity is driven as an electromagnetic resonator. If perfect conductivity is assumed, the transverse and normal field components must obey which of the following conditions at the inner cavity walls?

 , 
- ,

 ,
- ,
- None of the above

Electromagnetism }TEM Waves
The full formalism of a conducting cavity can be solved via TEM (transverse electromagnetic) wave guides. However, to solve this problem, one needs only the two boundary conditions from the reflection at a conducting surface,  and  .
The electric field parallel to the cavity is the transverse field, and thus one has choice (D), exactly the conditions above.

Griffiths E&M covers it.

Looks like most of the problems are related to Griffiths Stuff.

Thanks

nevermind, must have been groggy that morning. feel free to edit this out ;-)
p.s. Yosun is the man
