Chapter 35, Problem 22P
In Fig. 35-37. two isotropic point sources S1, and S2 emit identical light waves in phase at wavelength λ. The sources lie at separation d on an x axis, and a light detector is moved in a circle of large radius around the midpoint between them. It detects 30 points of zero intensity, including two on the x axis, one of them to the left of the sources and the other to the right of the sources What is the value of d/λ?

78 E The primary rainbow described in Problem 77 is the
type commonly seen in regions where rainbows appear. It is pro-
duced by light reflecting once inside the drops. Rarer is the sec-
ondary rainbow described in Module 33-5, produced by light
reflecting twice inside the drops (Fig. 33-68a). (a) Show that the
angular deviation of light entering and then leaving a spherical
water drop is
Odev = (180°)k + 20, – 2(k + 1)8,,
where k is the number of internal reflections. Using the procedure
of Problem 77, find the angle of minimum deviation for (b) red
light and (c) blue light in a secondary rainbow. (d) What is the
angular width of that rainbow (Fig. 33-21d)?
The tertiary rainbow depends on three internal reflections
(Fig. 33-68b). It probably occurs but, as noted in Module 33-5,
cannot be seen with the eye because it is very faint and lies in the
bright sky surrounding the Sun. What is the angle of minimum de-
viation for (e) the red light and (f) the blue light in this rainbow?
(g)…
(1) Write down the electric and magnetic fields for a monochromatic plane wave of
amplitude Eo and frequency o traveling in free space in the negative x direction
and polarized in the z direction.
(ii) Sketch the wave and give the explicit Cartesian components of k and n.
(iii) A reflective glass plate with refractive index n is placed in the yz plane at x = 0.
Write down the electric field of the reflected wave from this glass plate.
