The correct option is (a) 2 MHz.
Explanation:
The critical frequency of a sky wave for reflection from an ionospheric layer of the atmosphere is given by, Uc = 9n1/2
where n is the number density of electrons/m3. It is given that n = 1011/m3
Uc = 9 x (1011)1/2 = 2.8 x 106 Hz = 2.8 MHz.
Hence the wave of frequency 2 MHz will be reflected back.
