- Integrated Concepts Suppose you put on two pairs of Polaroid sunglasses with their axes at an angle of 15.0°. How much longer will it take the light to deposit a given amount of energy in your eye compared with a single pair of sunglasses? Assume the lenses are clear except for their polarizing characteristics.arrow_forwardWhen dots are placed on a page from a laser printer, they must be close enough so that you do not see the individual dots of ink. To do this, the separation of the dots must be less than Raleigh's criterion. Take the pupil of the eye to be 3.0 mm and the distance from the paper to the eye of 35 cm; find the minimum separation of two dots such that they cannot be resolved. How many dots per inch (dpi) does this correspond to?arrow_forwardCan a sound wave in air be polarized? Explain.arrow_forward
- Why is the front surface of a thermometer curved as shown? Figure 25.47 The curved surface of the thermometer serves a purpose.arrow_forwardFigure 25.49 shows a light bulb between two mirrors. One minor produces a beam at light with parallel lays; the other keeps light from escaping without being put into the beam. Where is the filament of the light in relation to the focal point or radius of curvature of each mirror? Figure 25.49 The two mirrors trap most of the bulb’s light and form a directional beam as in a headlight.arrow_forwardFigure 25.54 shows a ray of light passing from one medium into a second and then a third. Show that 3 is the same as it would be if the second medium were not present (provided total internal reflection does not occur). Figure 25.54 A ray of light passes from one medium to a third by traveling through a second. The final direction is the same as if the second medium were not present, but the ray is displaced by x (Shawn exaggerated).arrow_forward
- A ring with a colorless gemstone is dropped into water.The gemstone becomes invisible when submerged. Can it be a diamond? Explain.arrow_forwardAt the end of Example 27.8, it was stated that the intensity of polarized light is reduced to 90.0% of its original value by passing through a polarizing filter with its axis at an angle of 18.4° to the direction of polarization. Verify this statement.arrow_forwardGive an example of a wave characteristic of light that is easily observed outside the laboratory.arrow_forward
- There was a major collision of an asteroid with the Moon in medieval times. It was described by monks at Canterbury Cathedral in England as a red glow on and around the Moon. How long after the asteroid hit the Moon, which is 3.84105km away, would the light first arrive on Earth?arrow_forwardIn a laboratory accident, you spill two liquids onto different parts of a water surface. Neither of the liquids mixes with the water. Both liquids form thin films on the water surface. As the films spread and become very thin, you notice that one film becomes brighter and the other darker in reflected light. Why?arrow_forwardWhy does the wavelength of light decrease when it passes from vacuum into a medium? State which attributes change and which stay the same and, thus, require the wavelength to decrease.arrow_forward
