The light from a krypton laser has a wavelength of 647.1 nm in air. As the light travels
from air into acrylic glass (n =1.491),
calculate (a) its speed in acrylic glass,
(b) its wavelength in acrylic glass,
(c) its critical angle in acrylic glass surrounded by air, and
(d) its frequency.
An anti-glare coating is applied to minimize reflection of a certain wavelength from the glass of a camera lens. If light travels slower in the coating than it does in the lens' glass, what minimum number of wavelengths need to travel across one thickness of the coating?
Thank you
There is a microscope that uses a wavelength of 470 nm and is designed to resolve objects of size 8,373 nm (which is defined by the Rayleigh criterion) and uses an objective lens with a diameter that is 3.90 mm. In mm, what's the max distance between the objective lens and the object that is being magnified?

A rectangular aperture is to lie placed in the center of the beam so that when the light falls perpendicularly on a wall 4.50 m away, the central maximum fills a rectangle 110 mm wide and 6.00 mm high. The dimensions are measured between the minima bracketing the central maximum. Find the required (a) width and (b) height of the aperture. (c) Is the longer dimension of the central bright patch in the diffraction pattern horizontal or vertical? (d) Is the longer dimension of the aperture horizontal or vertical?

- One way to determine the index of refraction of a gas is to use an interferometer. As shown below, one of the beams of an interferometer passes through a glass container that has a length of L = 1.8 cm. Initially the glass container is a vacuum. When gas is slowly allowed into the container, a total of 6894 dark fringes move past the reference line. The laser has a wavelength of 635 nm (this is the wavelength when the light from the laser is moving through a vacuum). A.) Determine how many wavelengths will fit into the glass container when it is a vacuum. Since the light passes through the container twice, you need to determine how many wavelengths will fit into a glass container that has a length of 2L.number of wavelengths (vacuum) = B.) The number of dark fringes is the difference between the number of wavelengths that fit in the container (length of 2L) when it has gas and the number of wavelengths that fit in the container (length of 2L) when it is a vacuum.
