Intensity of Reflection (reflected waves)

The Intensity of Reflection (reflected waves) can be calculated using the velocity of the wave in the original medium (`v_1`), and the velocity of the wave in the new medium (`v_2`).

INSTRUCTIONS: Enter the following:

`v_1` = Velocity in the original medium

`v_2` = Velocity in the new medium

Intensity of Reflection(R): The intensity of reflection for the reflected wave is returned in a percentage of how much is being reflected off of the medium.
