- A ray of white light traveling through air enters a triangular prism that has an index of refraction of 1.517 for the red end of the spectrum and 1.532 for the violet end and an apex angle of 61.5 degrees. If the ray has an angle of incidence of 44.8 degrees with respect to the normal of the interface boundary, what is the angular separation between the red and violet ends of the spectrum upon exiting the prism? Measure this in degrees to 2 decimal places.63 In Fig. 33-60, light enters a 90° triangular prism at point P with inci- dent angle 0, and then some of it refracts at point Q with an angle of refraction of 90°.

Does light emerge at Q if the incident angle at P is (c) increased slightly and (d) decreased slightly?Two polarizing sheets are placed together with their transmission axes crossed so that no light is transmitted. A third sheet is inserted between them with its transmission axis at an angle of 45 degree with respect to each of the other transmission axes. Find the fraction of incident unpolarized light intensity transmitted by the three-sheet combination. (Assume each polarizing sheet is ideal.)
- Light reflected from a horizontal surface, such as a road or a lake, has a partial horizontal polarization. We can think of the light as a mixture of horizontally polarized light and unpolarized light. Suppose the reflected light from a road surface is 50%% polarized and 50%% unpolarized. The light intensity is 120 W/m2W/m2.PleaseA ray of light enters a liquid from air. If the angle between the incident and refracted rays is 133° and the angle between the reflected and refracted rays is 76°, find the refractive index of the liquid. Assume the refractive index of air is 1.00.
- In Figure (a) below, unpolarized light is sent into a system of three polarizing sheets. The angles 8₁, 82, and 83 of the polarizing directions are measured counterclockwise from the positive direction of the y axis (they are not drawn to scale). Angles 8₁ and 83 are fixed, but angle 82 can be varied. Figure (b) gives the intensity of the light emerging from sheet 3 as a function of 82. (The scale of the intensity axis is not indicated.)
