Default what happens to reflected energy ?

Radio waves are emitted continously. Radar waves are in the portions.


Laser light can usually be considered to be coherent light as are
waves generated by an RF transmitter. But of course, nothing is
perfect.

Radio waves and the light photons flow directly through the dielectric layer
of a capacitor.


Energy flow, just not as "current".

Electrons are compressed in the ends of the open circuit (condenser and
antenna).


"Compressed" may be overstating the phenomenon. Have you ever
calculated exactly how far an electron moves at 10 MHz?

Electrons are simple.


Yes, too simple to move at the speed of light.
