A plane wave hits a piece of glass whose front surface is spherical and whose back surface is plane. The radius of the lens is 10 cm and the thickness of the glass is 1 cm at the center, as shown in the diagram at right. At time t1, the center of the plane wavefront has just reached the lens. A short time later, at time t2, the center of the wavefront will have passed completely through the glass, as shown.
a) Find the time that elapses between t1 and t2, the time it takes the center of the wavefront to pass thorugh the middle 1 cm of the glass.
b) Find the amount by which the edges of the wavefront at t2 will be ahead of the cetner of the wavefront, due to the fact that these edges passed through empty space, with no glass in their paths.
A thin beam of white light is directed at a flat sheet of silicate flint glass at an angle of 20° to the surface of the sheet. Due to dispersion in the glass, the beam is spread out in a spectrum as shown in the figure. The refractive index of silicate flint glass versus wavelength is graphed in figure to the right. (a) The rays (A and B) shown in the figure correspond to the extreme wavelengths. Which corresponds to red and which to violet? Explain your reasoning. (b) For what thickness of the glass sheet will the spectrum be 1.0 mm wide, as shown (see Problem 7)? Hint: you must first solve Problem 7 first before doing Problem 8). Answer: 93.5 mm

- A narrow beam of light is incident on the left side of the prism shown in the figure below. The prism is a right triangle, with two of its angles measuring 45°. A) The transmitted beam that exits the hypotenuse of the prism makes an angle of ? = 17.5° with the direction of the incident beam. What is the index of refraction of the prism? B) In part (a), we assumed the beam was monochromatic. Consider instead the case where the beam was composed of white light. Because the index of refraction differs for different wavelengths, the white light would be dispersed into constituent colors.
