Try this simple experiment on your own. Take two opaquecups, place a coin at the bottom of each cup near the edge,and fill one cup with water. Next, view the cups at some anglefrom the side so that the coin in water is just visible as shownon the left in Figure CQ22.12. Notice that the coin in air is notvisible as shown on the right in Figure CQ22.12. Explain thisobservation.

Crystal lattices can be examined with X-rays but not UV. Why?
A high-quality diamond may be quite clear and colorless, transmitting all visible wavelengths with little absorption. Explain how it can sparkle with flashes of brilliant color when illuminated by white light.
Iridescent peacock feathers are shown in Figure P27.68a (page 938). The surface of one microscopic barbule is composed of transparent keratin that supports rods of dark brown melanin in a regular lattice, represented in Figure P27.68b. (Your fingernails are made of keratin, and melanin is the dark pigment giving color to human skin.) In a portion of the feather that can appear turquoise (blue-green), assume the melanin rods are uniformly separated by 0.25 m, with air between them. (a) Explain how this structure can appear turquoise when it contains no blue or green pigment. (b) Explain how it can also appear violet if light falls on it in a different direction. (c) Explain how it can present different colors to your two eyes simultaneously, which is a characteristic of iridescence. (d) A compact disc can appear to be any color of the rainbow. Explain why the portion of the feather in Figure P27.68b cannot appear yellow or red. (e) What could be different about the array of melanin rods in a portion of the feather that does appear to be red? Figure P27.68 (a) Iridescence in peacock feathers. (b) Microscopic section of a feather showing dark melanin rods in a pale keratin matrix.
A horizontal laser beam of wavelength 632.8 nm has a circular cross section 2.00 nun in diameter. A rectangular aperture is to lie placed in the center of the beam so that when the light falls perpendicularly on a wall 4.50 m away, the central maximum fills a rectangle 110 mm wide and 6.00 mm high. The dimensions are measured between the minima bracketing the central maximum. Find the required (a) width and (b) height of the aperture. (c) Is the longer dimension of the central bright patch in the diffraction pattern horizontal or vertical? (d) Is the longer dimension of the aperture horizontal or vertical? (e) Explain the relationship between these two rectangles, using a diagram.
