A light ray of wavelength 589 nm (produced by a sodium m lamp) travelling through air is incident a smooth, flat slab of crystal (n=2) at an angle 1= 30 degrees to the normal. Calculate the critical angle of crystal if light travels from slab of crystal to air.
A ray of white light is incident upon a rectangular block of glass with an index of refraction 1.519 for the red end of the spectrum and 1.538 for the violet end. It
strikes the interface boundary between the air and glass at an angle of 54.5 degrees. Dispersion takes place and the light proceeds to travel through the glass until
reaching the opposite side. What is the thickness of the glass block if the spatial separation of the red and violet ends of the spectrum is 0.028 m at the exit
boundary? Answer in meters to 2 decimal places.
A ray of white light traveling through air enters a block of glass that has an index of refraction of 1.44 for the red end of the spectrum and 1.46 for the violet end. If the ray has an angle of incidence of 60.0 degrees with respect to the normal of the interface boundary, what's the angular separation between the red and violet ends of the spectrum within the glass?
