What is the time dilation compared to a stationary ground clock
of a satellite clock in orbit with an eccentricity of 0 and an
altitude of 202 km above mean sea level?

Where is the discontinuity between a half-wave dipole antenna's near
and far fields located? Assume the antenna is immersed in vacuum, far
from any other conductors, and zero element thickness.

How large is the discontinuity?

What differentiates it from the near and far field regions?

Why do the measured strengths of the E and H components of the far
field obey the inverse-square law but those of the near field do not?
