3) Since we are treating light as a particle, it is appropriate to consider a pool ball bouncing off the edges of a pool table as analogous to reflection of a light particle from a mirror. Consider the pool table and cue ball shown below. The table is 8' x 4' and the spacing between white marks along the outer cushion of the table is 1'. Imagine that you want to hit the cue ball in such a way as to hit the ball located near the top middle pocket. Based on the locations of the other balls, you determine that the only way to do this is to "double bank" the ball off two sides as shown below. If you estimate that you must hit the first side at a point 3 1/3 feet from the cue ball, determine the angle O which the cue ball will make as it is approaching the other ball. 8' 1' 1' 10 Cue Ball 4' 90 3 1/3'

Ordinary photographic film reverses black and white, in the sense that the most brightly illuminated areas become blackest upon development (hence the term negative). Suppose a hologram negative is viewed directly, without making a positive transparency. How will the resulting images differ from those obtained with the positive? Explain.
A ray of light is incident on an air/water interface. The ray makes an angle of θ1 = 29 degrees with respect to the normal of the surface. The index of the air is n1 = 1 while water is n2 = 1.33. Write an expression for the reflection angle ψ, with respect to the surface.
