- Light enters a prism of crown glass and refracts at an angle of 5.00 with respect to the normal at the interface. The crown glass has a mean index of refraction of 1.51. It is combined with one flint glass prism (n = 1.65) to produce no net deviation. a. Find the apex angle of the flint glass. b. Assume the index of refraction for violet light (v = 430 nm) is nv = 1.528 and the index of refraction for red light (r = 768 nm) is nr = 1.511 for crown glass. For flint glass using the same wavelengths, nv = 1.665 and nr = 1.645. Find the net dispersion.arrow_forwardAccording to Table 35.1, the index of refraction of flint glass is 1.66 and the index of refraction of crown glass is 1.52. (i) A film formed by one drop of sassafras oil, on a horizontal surface of a flint glass block, is viewed by reflected light. The film appears brightest at its outer margin, where it is thinnest. A film of the same oil on crown glass appears dark at its outer margin. What can you say about the index of refraction of the oil? (a) It must be less than 1.52. (b) It must be between 1.52 and 1.66. (c) It must be greater than 1.66. (d) None of those statements is necessarily true, (ii) Could a very thin film of some other liquid appear bright by reflected light on both of the glass blocks? (iii) Could it appear dark on both? (iv) Could it appear dark on crown glass and bright on flint glass? Experiments described by-Thomas Young suggested this question.arrow_forwardA ray of 610 nm light goes from air into fused quartz at an incident angle of 55.0°.

- In a laboratory accident, you spill two liquids onto water, neither of which mixes with the water. They both form thin films on the water surface. When the films become very thin as they spread, you observe that one fi lm becomes bright and the other dark in reflected light. The film that appears dark (a) has an index of refraction higher than that of water, (b) has an index of refraction lower than that of water, (c) has an index of refraction equal to that of water, or (d) has an index of refraction lower than that of the bright film.arrow_forwardA narrow beam of white light enters a prism made of crown glass at a 45.0° incident angle, as shown in Figure 25.57. At what angles, R and V, do the red (660 nm) and violet (410 nm) components of the light emerge from the prism? Figure 25.57 This prism will disperse the while light into a rainbow of colors. The incident angle is 45.0°, and the angles at which the red and violet light emerge are R and V.arrow_forwardA 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_forward
