Question
Chapter 18.3, Problem 8A
Summary Introduction
Whether the star moves eastward or westward.
Introduction:
All stars appear to move from east to west across the sky. This is because the Earth rotates from west to east, the sky and the objects present in the sky are moving towards the west.

- An Optical Spectrometer. You and your team are tasked with characterizing an equilateral, triangular prism to be used in an optical spectrometer. An optical spectrometer contains a dispersive element (in this case, the prism) that separates an incoming beam of light into its constituent wavelengths (or colors), and a photocell that measures the intensity of each color (wavelength) by measuring the intensity of the dispersed light as a function of angle. The index of refraction of the prism material you are using depends on the wavelength as n(A)=(1.111 x 104 nm¹) A (nm) + 1.609 An incident beam of white light impinges on the surface (see drawing) at an angle of 42.2 degrees below the normal. The prism is in air (n = 1.000).
