Green light has a wavelength of 500 nm in air. (i) Assume green light is reflected from a mirror with angle of incidence 0. The incident and reflected waves together constitute a standing wave with what distance from one node to the next node? (a) 1000 nm (b) 500 nm (c) 250 nm (d) 125 nm (e) 62.5 nm (ii). The green light is sent into a Michelson interferometer that is adjusted to produce a central bright circle. How far must the interferometer's moving mirror be shifted to change the center of the pattern into a dark circle? Choose from the same possibilities as in part (i). (iii).

One leg of a Michelson interferometer contains an evacuated cylinder of length L, having glass plates on each end. A gas is slowly leaked into the cylinder until a pressure of 1 atm is reached. If N bright fringes pass on the screen during this process when light of wavelength A is used, what is the index of refraction of the gas? Hint: The fringe shifts occur because the wavelength of the light changes inside the gas-filled tube.
