- Light of original intensity I0 passes through two idea polarizing filters having their polarizing axes oriented as shown in the figure. You want to adjust the angle so that the intensity at point P is equal to I0/12. (A) if the original light is linearly polarized in the same direction as the polarizing axis of the first polarizer the light reaches, what should the angle be? Express your answer in degrees.You are in a room lit only by blue light. A chair in that room looks black to you. (Your eyes see red + green light as yellow; your eyes see red+ blue light as magenta; your eyes see green and blue light as cyan) a. What colors of light is the chair reflecting in the blue room? What colors of light is the chair absorbing in that room? Explain. b. You then move the chair out into the sunlight. What possible colors could the chair be in the sunlight? Explain.Please
- Two light sources of identical strength are placed 10m apart. An object is to be placed at a point P on a line l, parallel to the line joining the light sources and at a distance d meters from it (see the figure). We want to locate P on, so that the intensity of illumination is minimized. We need to use the fact that the intensity of illumination for a single source is directly proportional to the strength of the source and inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. a) Find an expression for the intensity l(x) at the point P. b) If d = 5m, use graphs of l(x) and l'(x) to show that the intensity is minimized when x = 5m, that is, when P is at the midpoint of l. c) If d = 10m, show that the intensity (perhaps surprisingly) is not minimized at the midpoint. d) Somewhere between d = 5m and d = 10m there is a transitional value of d at which the point of minimal illumination abruptly changes. Estimate this value of d by graphical methods. Then find the exact value…X rays of wavelength 0.0820 nm are scattered from the atoms of a crystal.

- A.) Polarized light is incident on 6 polarizing sheets. The axis of the first polarized sheet makes an angle 0 with the plane of polarization. Each subsequent sheet has an axis that is rotated by an angle e from that of adjacent sheets. Find e if 34% of the incident intensity is transmitted by the sheets. B.) Suppose you want to rotate the plane of polarization of a beam of polarized light by 78°, but you do not want the final intensity to be less than 53% of the initial intensity. What is the minimum number of polarizing sheets you must use? Assume that each sheet is rotated the same angle relative to the adjacent sheets. sheetsA beam of coherent orange light in air (nD = 1.00029) strikes a piece of glass with a refractive index of 1.52 at an angle 24° from normal. a) What will the angle of refraction be? b) If coherent blue light were used instead, would the angle of refraction be larger or smaller? Explain why.
