Given below are two statements :
Statement I: A time varying electric field is a source of changing magnetic field and vice-versa. Thus a disturbance in electric or magnetic field creates EM waves.
Statement II: In a material medium, the EM wave travels with speed .
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
(a)Both statement I and statement II are true
(b)Both statement I and statement II are false
(c)Statement I is correct but statement II is false
(d)Statement I is incorrect but statement II is true

A radar sends an electromagnetic signal of electric field and magnetic field which strikes a target on line of sight at a distance of in a medium. After that, a part of signal (echo) reflects back towards the radar with same velocity and by same path. If the signal was transmitted at time from radar, then after how much time echo will reach to the radar?
