 3.85. (a) E1=E2=E0,D1=ε0E0,D2=εD1; (b) E1=E2==2E0/(ε+1),D1=2ε0E0/(ε+1),D2=εD1\begin{array}{l} \text { 3.85. (a) } E_{1}=E_{2}=E_{0}, D_{1}=\varepsilon_{0} E_{0}, D_{2}=\varepsilon D_{1} ; \text { (b) } E_{1}=E_{2}= \\ =2 E_{0} /(\varepsilon+1), D_{1}=2 \varepsilon_{0} E_{0} /(\varepsilon+1), D_{2}=\varepsilon D_{1} \end{array}
