- A film of oil on water will appear dark when it is very thin, because the path length difference becomes small compared with the wavelength of light and there is a phase shift at the top surface. If it becomes dark when the path length difference is less than one-fourth the wavelength, what is the thickest the oil can be and appear dark at all visible wavelengths? Oil has an index of refraction of 1.40.arrow_forwardBoth sides of a uniform film that has index of refraction n and thickness d are in contact with air. For normal incidence of light, an intensity minimum is observed in the reflected light at λ2 and an intensity maximum is observed at λ1, where λ1 > λ2. (a) Assuming no intensity minima are observed between λ1 and λ2, find an expression for the integer m in Equations 27.13 and 27.14 in terms of the wavelengths λ1 and λ2. (b) Assuming n = 1.40, λ1 = 500 nm, and λ2 = 370 nm, determine the best estimate for the thickness of the film.arrow_forwardShow that if you have three polarizing filters, with the second at an angle of 45.0to the first and at third at an angle of 90.0to the first, the intensity of light passed by the first will be reduced to 25.0% of its value. (This is in contrast to having only the first and third, which reduces the intensity to zero, so that placing the second between them increases the intensity of the transmitted light.)arrow_forward
- Check Your Understanding Although m, the number of fringes observed, is an integer, which is often regarded as having zero uncertainty, in practical terms, it is all too easy to lose track when counting fringes. In Example 3.6, if you estimate that you might have missed as many as five fringes when you reported m=122 fringes, (a) is the value for the index of refraction worked out in Example 3.6 too large or too small? (b) By how much?arrow_forwardIf the light source in the preceding problem is changed, the angular position of the third maximum is found to be 0.57°.

- 103 In Fig. 35-59, an oil drop (n = 1.20) floats on the surface of wa- ter (n = 1.33) and is viewed from overhead when illuminated by sun- light shining vertically downward and reflected vertically upward. (a) Are the outer (thinnest) regions of the drop bright or dark? The oil film displays several spectra of colors. (b) Move from the rim inward to the third blue band and, using a wavelength of 475 nm for blue light, determine the film thickness there. (c) If the oil thickness in- creases, why do the colors gradually fade and then disappear? %3D Oil Water Figure 35-59 Problem 103.arrow_forwardwww In Fig. 35-48, an airtight chamber of length d 5.0 cm is placed in one of the arms of a Michelson interferometer. (The glass window on each end of the cham- ber has negligible thickness.) Light of wavelength A = 500 nm is used. Evacuating the air from the chamber causes a shift of 60 bright fringes.
