A ray of light falls on a film of water (nwater = 1.33) of thickness d and then refracted on a glass plate (nglass = 1.66) with the same thickness as illustrated in the image.
With the given data, determine:
(a) Find the relationship between x and d.(b) Find the angles θ1 and θ2. (Express the result with 3 significant figures)
A diver shines a flashlight upward from beneath the water (n = 1.33) at a 34.2 degree angle to the vertical.
At what angle does the light leave the water?
Express your answer using three significant figures.
The smallest object we can resolve with our eye is limited by the size of the light receptor cells in the retina. In order for us to distinguish any detail in an object, its image cannot be any smaller than a single retinal cell. Although the size depends on the type of cell (rod or cone), a diameter of a few microns 1mm2 is typical near the center of the eye. We shall model the eye as a sphere 2.50 cm in diameter with a single thin lens at the front and the retina at the rear, with light receptor cells 5.0 mm in diameter. (a) What is the smallest object you can resolve at a near point of 25 cm? (b) What angle is subtended by this object at the eye? Express your answer in units of minutes (1° = 60 min), and compare it with the typical experimental value of about 1.0 min.
