The end of a solid glass rod of refractive index 1.50 is polished to have the shape of a hemispherical surface of radius 1.0 cm. A small object is placed in air (refractive index 1.00) on the axis 5.0 cm to the left of the vertex. Determine the position of the image.
The radius of curvature of the left-hand face of a flint glass biconvex lens (n = 1.60) has a magnitude of 8.00 cm, and the radius of curvature of the right-hand face has a magnitude of 11.0 cm. The incident surface of a biconvex lens is convex regardless of which side is the incident side. What is the focal length of the lens if light is incident on the lens from the left?
The drawing shows a ray of light traveling from point A to point B, in a material that has an index of refraction n1 = 2.28. At point B, the light encounters a different substance whose index of refraction is n2 = 1.64. The light strikes the interface at the critical angle of θc. What is the critical angle θc?
A physicist directs a laser beam through a transparent medium, toward one surface of an equilateral prism. (The beam travels, and remains in, the plane of the page.) Incident on Surface 1 at an angle ?1, the beam then encounters Surface 2 from within the prism. If the angle of incidence at Surface 2 equals ?c , the critical angle for this prism, what is the original incidence angle, ?1 (in degrees)? The critical angle in this case is ?c = 40.5°. 40.5° 40.5° A prism in the shape of an equilateral triangle is shown. The triangle is upside down such that the base of the triangle is at the top of the figure and the apex is at the bottom. A laser beam comes in from the top left, moves down and to the right and is incident on the center of the base of the triangle. This surface is labeled Surface 1. The incident beam makes an angle of ?1 with the vertical. Within the prism, the beam continues to move down and to the right but at a slope which is steeper than the initial beam. It is incident…
The left end of a long glass rod 8.00 cm in diameter, with an index of refraction of 1.60, is ground and polished to a convex hemispherical surface with a radius of 4.00 cm.
