For the pane's type of glass, the index of refraction for visible light ranges from 1.524 at the blue end of the spectrum to 1.509 at the red end. The two sides of the pane are paral- lel. What is the angular spread of the colors in the beam (a) when the light enters the pane and (b) when it emerges from the opposite side?

- 10. A light ray of given wavelength, initially in air, strikes a 90° prism at P (see Fig. 39-53) and is refracted there and at Q to such an extent that it just grazes the right-hand prism surface at Q. (a) Determine the index of retraction of the prism for this wavelength in terms of the angle of incidence , that gives rise to this situation. (b) Give a numerical upper bound for the index of refraction of the prism. Show, by ray dia- grams, what happens if the angle of incidence at P is (c) slightly greater or (d) slightly less than 0₁. 90 FIGURE 39-53. Problem 10.arrow_forwardA ray of light is incident on an air/water interface. The ray makes an angle of θ1 = 29 degrees with respect to the normal of the surface.

NOTE: note that d is the perpendicular distance between the incident ray (pink solid line) and the pink dashed linearrow_forwardLight traveling through medium 3 (n3 = 2.4) is incident on the interface with medium 2 (n2 = 2.0) at angle θ. If light does enter into medium 2 but no light enters into medium 1 (n1 = 1.6), what can we conclude about the range of values for θ?arrow_forward78 E The primary rainbow described in Problem 77 is the type commonly seen in regions where rainbows appear. It is pro- duced by light reflecting once inside the drops. Rarer is the sec- ondary rainbow described in Module 33-5, produced by light reflecting twice inside the drops (Fig. 33-68a). (a) Show that the angular deviation of light entering and then leaving a spherical water drop is Odev = (180°)k + 20, – 2(k + 1)8,, where k is the number of internal reflections. Using the procedure of Problem 77, find the angle of minimum deviation for (b) red light and (c) blue light in a secondary rainbow. (d) What is the angular width of that rainbow (Fig. 33-21d)? The tertiary rainbow depends on three internal reflections (Fig. 33-68b). It probably occurs but, as noted in Module 33-5, cannot be seen with the eye because it is very faint and lies in the bright sky surrounding the Sun. What is the angle of minimum de- viation for (e) the red light and (f) the blue light in this rainbow? (g)…arrow_forward
