Chapter 35, Problem 35.21E

Consider two antennas separated by 9.00 m that radiate in phase at 120 MHz, as described in Exercise 35.3. A receiver placed 150 m from both antennas measures an intensity I0. The receiver is moved so that it is 1.8 m closer to one antenna than to the other. (a) What is the phase difference ϕ between the two radio waves produced by this path difference? (b) In terms of I0, what is the intensity measured by the receiver at its new position?

A beam of light with wavelength 440 nm in air hits a thin piece of glass 10.28 microns thick (with refractive index 1.55) at an angle of 40.8 degrees to the normal. What is the path difference between the two reflections from the layers of the glass, in wavelengths? [Note to get the phase shift we multiply this number by 2π, but this is modulo 2π, i.e. any integer number of wavelengths are 2π phase shifts, equivalent to no phase shift... basically in terms of phase we only really need the non-integer part of your answer. Note also that for the phase shift we would need to add a π for the reflection off the glass-air interface.]
How can I calculate the phase difference, in radians, between the rays from the two slits as they strike the screen at the specified distance from the central maximum, given an electromagnetic radiation of intensity I0 = 340 W/m2 that passes through two parallel narrow slits that are d = 1.4 μm apart and strikes a screen located L = 2.2 m from the slits. The intensity of the radiation on the screen at y = 3.9 mm from the central interference maximum is I = 95 W/m2. I know the equation is 2 acos (I/I0)1/2 but can't figure out the answer.
In a double slit experiment, if the separation between the two slits is 0.050 mm and the distance from the slits to a screen is 2.5 m, find the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes when coherent light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates the slits. A) 1.5 cm B) 3.0 cm C) 4.5 cm D) 6.0 cm E) 9.0 cm
