Optics is the study of light in the field of physics. It refers to the study and properties of light. Optical phenomena can be classified into three categories: ray optics, wave optics, and quantum optics. Geometrical optics, also known as ray optics, is…

Converging Lens

Converging lens, also known as a convex lens, is thinner at the upper and lower edges and thicker at the center. The edges are curved outwards. This lens can converge a beam of parallel rays of light that is coming from outside and focus it on a point on…

Plano-Convex Lens

To understand the topic well we will first break down the name of the topic, ‘Plano Convex lens’ into three separate words and look at them individually.

Lateral Magnification

In very simple terms, the same object can be viewed in enlarged versions of itself, which we call magnification. To rephrase, magnification is the ability to enlarge the image of an object without physically altering its dimensions and structure. This pr…

White light is incident on a soap film (n = 1.33, thickness = 800 0 nm suspended n air. If the incident light makes a 45° angle with the normal to the film, what visible wavelengths(S) will be constructively reflected? (Refer to Example 25-6 for the range of visibte wavelengths.)

..54 Dispersion in a window pane. In gle e Fig. 33-54, a beam of white light is incident at an- 50° on a common window pane (shown in cross section). For the pane's type of glass, the index of refraction for visible light ranges from 1.524 at the blue end of the spectrum to 1.509 at the red end. The two sides of the pane are paral- lel. What is the angular spread of the colors in the beam (a) when the light enters the pane and (b) when it emerges from the opposite side? (Hint: When you look at an object through a window pane, are the colors the light from the object dispersed as shown in, say, Fig. 33-20?) = Ꮎ Figure 33-54 Problem 54.
