Explain how microscopes can use wave optics to improve contrast and why this is important.
Why does the wavelength of light decrease when it passes from vacuum into a medium? State which attributes change and which stay the same and, thus, require the wavelength to decrease.
Diffraction spreading for a flashlight is insignificant compared with other limitations in its optics, such as spherical aberrations in its mirror. To show this, calculate the minimum angular spreading of a flashlight beam that is originally 5.00 cm in diameter with an average wavelength of 600 nm.
While using a Michelson interferometer (shown in Fig. 37.13), you see a dark circle at the center of the interference pattern, (i) As you gradually move the light source toward the central mirror M0, through a distance /2, what do you see? (a) There is no change in the pattern, (b) The dark circle changes into a bright circle. (c) The dark circle changes into a bright circle and then back into a dark circle. (d) The dark circle changes into a bright circle, then into a dark circle, and then into a bright circle. (ii) As you gradually move the moving mirror toward the central mirror M0, through a distance /2, what tit) you see? Choose from the same possibilities.
The wavelength of light changes when it passes from one medium into another. Suppose green light at 550.0 nm passesfrom air into glass (n = 1.5). a. What is its wavelength in glass? b. What is its frequency? c. Do you see the same color in both media?
In Section 9.6, we described how the speed of light varies with wavelength (or frequency) for transparent solids. But the speed of light in matter is also a function of temperature and pressure. This dependence is most marked for gases and is instrumental in producing such things as mirages and atmospheric refraction, the latter phenomenon being the displacement of an astronomical object (like the Sun or another star) from its true position because of the passage of its light through the atmosphere. Because Earth’s atmosphere is a gaseous mixture and easily compressed, its density is highest near Earth’s surface and gradually declines with altitude. (Refer to the discussion in Section 4.4 and Figure 4.29.) Thus, the speed of light in the atmosphere is lowest near the surface and gradually gets higher, approaching c as one goes farther and farther into space. Using this fact and the law of refraction, sketch the path a light ray from the Sun would follow upon entering Earth’s atmosphere, and predict the apparent position of the Sun relative to its true position (Figure 9.85). What does this tell you about the actual location of the Sun’s disk relative to your local horizon when you see it apparently setting brilliantly in the west in the evening?
A fish looks up toward the surface of a pond and sees the entire panorama of clouds, sky birds, and so on, contained in a narrow cone of light, beyond which there is darkness. What is going on here to produce this vision, and how large is the opening angle of the cone of Light received by the fish?
How far apart must two objects be on the moon to be distinguishable by eye if only the diffraction effects of the eye’s pupil limit the resolution? Assume 550 nm for the wavelength of light, the pupil diameter 5.0 mm, and 400,000 km for the distance to the moon.
Suppose light were incident from air onto a material that had a negative index at retraction, say 1.3; where does the refracted light ray go?
What is color constancy, and what are its limitations?
What is the ratio of thicknesses of crown glass and water that would contain the same number of wavelengths of light?
Young’s double-slit experiment breaks a single light beam into two sources. Would the same pattern be obtained for two independent sources of light, such as the headlights of a distant car? Explain.
