- A beam of 580-nm light passes through two closely spaced glass plates at close to normal incidence as shown in Figure P27.23. For what minimum nonzero value of the plate separation d is the transmitted light bright?arrow_forwardImpressionist painter Georges Seurat created paintings with an enormous number of dots of pure pigment, each of which was approximately 2.00 mm in diameter. The idea was to have colors such as red and green next to each other to form a scintillating canvas, such as in his masterpiece, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte (Fig. P37.15). Assume = 500 nm and a pupil diameter of 5.00 mm. Beyond what distance would a viewer be unable to discern individual dots on the canvas? Figure P37.15arrow_forwardAstronomers observe the chromosphere of the Sun with a filter that passes the red hydrogen spectral line of wavelength 656.3 nm, called the H line. The filter consists of a transparent dielectric of thickness d held between two partially aluminized glass plates. The filter is held at a constant temperature. (a) Find the minimum value of d that produces maximum transmission of perpendicular H light if the dielectric has an index of refraction of 1.378. (b) What If? If the temperature of the filter increases above the normal value, increasing its thickness, what happens to the transmitted wavelength? (c) The dielectric will also pass what near-visible wavelength? One of the glass plates is colored red to absorb this light.arrow_forward

The end of the rod has a thin coating of a transparent material that has refractive index 1.75. a)What is the minimum (nonzero) thickness of the coating for which there is maximum transmission of the light into the rod? b)What is the minimum (nonzero) thickness of the coating for which transmission into the rod is minimized?arrow_forwardA thin layer of a transparent material that has an index of refraction of 1.25 is used as a nonreflective coating on the surface of glass that has an index of refraction of 1.50. What should the minimum thickness of the material be for the material to be nonreflecting for light that has a wavelength of 578 nm?arrow_forwardAn optic fiber is a clear solid tube designed to transmit light pulses in a particular direction. To minimize losses, you want light hitting the inside surface of the tube to reflect for as large a range of angles as possible. Should the index of refraction of the fiber be large or small? Why?arrow_forward

The filter consists of a transparent dielectric of thickness d held between two partially aluminized glass plates. The filter is kept at a constant temperature.

(b) If the temperature of the filter increases above the normal value increasing its thickness, what happens to the transmitted wavelength?
