Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The load impedance =
z_L=(30-j50)\Omega\\

Characteristic impedance (Zo) = 50 Ω

Wavelength (λ) = 8 cm = 0.08 m

a) The reflection coefficient at the load is given as:


\Gamma=(Z_L-Z_o)/(Z_L+Z_o)=(30-j50-50)/(30-j50+50)=0.57\angle -79.8^o

b) The standing wave ratio (VSWR) is given as:


VSWR=(1+|\Gamma|)/(1-|\Gamma|)=(1+0.57)/(1-0.57) =3.65

c) The position of the voltage maximum nearest the load is given asL


d_(max)=(\theta_\Gamma*\lambda)/(4\pi)+(n\lambda)/(2)=(-79.8*0.08\ m)/(4\pi)*(\pi)/(180)+(n*0.08)/(2)=-0.00887+0.04=0.0311\ m\\\\d_(max)=3.11\ cm

d) The current maximum occurs at the voltage minimum. Hence:


d_(min)=d_(max)-(\lambda)/(4)=3.11\ cm-(8\ cm)/(4)=1.11\ cm
