When the sun is either rising or setting and appears to be just on the horizon, it is in fact below the horizon. The explanation for this seeming paradox is that light from the sun bends slightly when entering the earth’s atmosphere, as shown in Fig. Since our perception is based on the idea that light travels in straight lines, we perceive the light to be coming from an apparent position that is an angle d above the sun’s true position. (a) Make the simplifying assumptions that the atmosphere has uniform density, and hence uniform index of refraction n, and extends to a height h above the earth’s surface, at which point it abruptly stops. Show that the angle d is given by as attached. where R = 6378 km is the radius of the earth. (b) Calculate d using n = 1.0003 and h = 20 km. How does this compare to the angular radius of the sun, which is about one quarter of a degree? (In actuality a light ray from the sun bends gradually, not abruptly, since the density and refractive index of the…
A light ray is incident from air into glass (ng = 1.52) then onto water (ny = 1.33). The wavelength of
light in air (na = 1) is hair = 500 nm and it travels at a speed c = 3 x 10% m/s. The wavelength of light,

376 nm,8x10*11 Hz
