Textbook Question

Chapter 36, Problem 16P

Babinet’s principle. A monochromatic beam of parallel light is incident on a “collimating” hole of diameter x ≫ λ. Point P lies in the geometrical shadow region on a distant screen (Fig. 36-39a). Two diffracting objects, shown in Fig. 36-39b, are placed in turn over the collimating hole. Object A is an opaque circle with a hole in it, and B is the “photographic negative” of A. Using superposition concepts, show that the intensity at P is identical for the two diffracting objects A and B.

10. A light ray of given wavelength, initially in air, strikes a 90° prism at P (see Fig. 39-53) and is refracted there and at Q to such an extent that it just grazes the right-hand prism surface at Q. (a) Determine the index of retraction of the prism for this wavelength in terms of the angle of incidence , that gives rise to this situation. (b) Give a numerical upper bound for the index of refraction of the prism. Show, by ray dia- grams, what happens if the angle of incidence at P is (c) slightly greater or (d) slightly less than 0₁. 90 FIGURE 39-53. Problem 10.

109 In Fig. 34-54, a fish watcher at point P watches a fish through a glass wall of a fish tank. The watcher is level with the fish; the index of re- fraction of the glass is 8/5, and that Watcher of the water is 4/3. The distances are di = 8.0 cm, dz = 3.0 cm, and dz = 6.8 cm. (a) To the fish, how far away does the watcher appear to be? (Hint: The watcher is the object. Light from that object passes through the wall's outside surface, which acts as a refracting sur- face. Find the image produced by that surface. Then treat that im- age as an object whose light passes through the wall's inside sur- face, which acts as another refracting surface.) (b) To the watcher, how far away does the fish appear to be? de D Wall Figure 34-54 Problem 109.

(1), A light wave is incident upon an air/glass (ZF13, n=1.78 @ 632.8 nm) interface at an angle of incidence 0-60°. The incident electric field can be described by: 8-(18+,+,) √√√3 e,+e, cos(at-k), where k = -- 2 The x, y and z directions are depicted in the Figure Ꮎ Air Glass (a) What fractions of the input power are in the TE and TM components, respectively, of the input wave? (b) What fraction of the incident wave power is transmitted?
