Light enters a prism of crown glass and refracts at an angle of 5.00 with respect to the normal at the interface. The crown glass has a mean index of refraction of 1.51. It is combined with one flint glass prism (n = 1.65) to produce no net deviation. a. Find the apex angle of the flint glass. b. Assume the index of refraction for violet light (v = 430 nm) is nv = 1.528 and the index of refraction for red light (r = 768 nm) is nr = 1.511 for crown glass. For flint glass using the same wavelengths, nv = 1.665 and nr = 1.645. Find the net dispersion.
A plano-convex lens has index of refraction n. The curved side of the lens has radius of curvature R and rests on a flat glass surface of the same index of refraction, with a film of index nflim between them, as shown in Figure P36.42. The lens is illuminated from above by light of wavelength . Show that the dark Newtons rings have radii given approximately by r=mRnfilm where r R and m is an integer. Figure P36.42
A source emits monochromatic light of wavelength 495 nm in air. When the light passes through a liquid, its wavelength reduces to 434 nm. What is the liquid's index of refraction? (a) 1.26 (b) 1.49 (c) 1.14 (d) 1.33 (e) 2.03
The index of refraction for crown glass is 1.512 at a wavelength of 660 nm (red), whereas its index of refraction is 1.530 at a wavelength of 410 nm (violet). If both wavelengths are incident on a slab of crown glass at the same angle of incidence, 60.0, what is the angle of refraction for each wavelength?
A beam of 580-nm light passes through two closely spaced glass plates at close to normal incidence as shown in Figure P27.23. For what minimum nonzero value of the plate separation d is the transmitted light bright?
A narrow beam of white light enters a prism made of crown glass at a 45.0° incident angle, as shown in Figure 25.57. At what angles, R and V, do the red (660 nm) and violet (410 nm) components of the light emerge from the prism? Figure 25.57 This prism will disperse the while light into a rainbow of colors. The incident angle is 45.0°, and the angles at which the red and violet light emerge are R and V.
