- What is the angle of refraction of the incident light is on air (n-1) and glass (n=1.42) boundary, if the angle of refraction is 1/2 of the angle of reflection? Note: Sin(20) = 2 Sin(0)Cos(0) O 37° O 39° O 41° O 45° 43°A possible means for making an airplane invisible to radar is to coat the plane with an anti-reflective polymer. If radar waves have a wavelength of 3.30 cm and the index of refraction of the polymer is n = 1.20, how thick would you make the coating? State your answer in cm to the nearest 0.001cm.In the figure below, assume that two waves of light in the air are innitially in phase. One wave travels through a layer of a material of index of refraction n1 = 1.5 and thickness L = 0.5 micro m. The other travels through an equally thick plastic layer of index of refraction n2 = 2. The wavelength of the light is 500nm. If after transversing the materials the waves arrive at some common point with the same amplitude, is there interference fully constructive, fully destructive, intermediate but closer to fully constructive, or intermediate but closer to fully destructive.

- White light originates in water (n = 1.33) and then passes through crown glass, which has mild dispersion behavior (nred = 1.52, nviolet = 1.53). What initial angle above the horizontal in water would be required for the glass to refract red light but internally reflect the violet light? Assume the glass is in contact with air above it. What would be the angle of refraction for red light at the glass-air interface? Air Glass WaterWhite light passes through a 15.0-cm-thick, silicate flint, glass slab with opposite, smooth, parallel surfaces as shown in the diagram below. The angle of incidence of the white light at the top surface is 38.0○ For this type of glass, the index of refraction of red light at 700 nm is 1.625, and the index of refraction for violet light at 400 nm is 1.660. Find the width of the spectrum of light along the surface at the bottom of the slab.11. A riverside warehouse has two open doors, as in Figure P24.11.
