The region on the left of the \(y\)-axis \((x<0)\) represents vacuum, and the region on the right \((x>0)\) represents a transparent medium. An electromagnetic wave travelling along the \(x\)-axis given by:   
\(\vec E_1(x,t)=E_1\hat j~\sin(\omega t-k_0x),\) where \(x<0,\)

is incident on to the medium on the right. The transmitted wave in the medium is:   
\(\vec E_2(x,t)=E_2\hat j~\sin(\omega t-2k_0x),\) where \(x>0.\)

The refractive index of the medium is:
1. \(2\) 2. \(\sqrt2\)
3. \(4\) 4. \(2\sqrt2\)
