Chapter 16, Problem 2LR
Summary Introduction
A diagram representation of cold front.
Introduction:
The collision of different air masses results in the formation of fronts. The air mass with warm air moves upward, and the air mass with cold air travel downwards due to fronts. There are many types of fronts, such as cold fronts, warm front, and so on.

- An Optical Spectrometer. You and your team are tasked with characterizing an equilateral, triangular prism to be used in an optical spectrometer. An optical spectrometer contains a dispersive element (in this case, the prism) that separates an incoming beam of light into its constituent wavelengths (or colors), and a photocell that measures the intensity of each color (wavelength) by measuring the intensity of the dispersed light as a function of angle. The index of refraction of the prism material you are using depends on the wavelength as n(A)=(1.111 x 104 nm¹) A (nm) + 1.609 An incident beam of white light impinges on the surface (see drawing) at an angle of 42.2 degrees below the normal.
