- Why is the following situation impossible? A laser beam strikes one end of a slab of material of length L = 42.0 cm and thickness t = 3.10 mm as shown in Figure P34.36 (not to scale). It enters the material at the center of the left end, striking it at an angle of incidence of 0 = 50.0°. The index of refraction of the slab is n = 1.48. The light makes 85 inter- nal reflections from the top and bottom of the slab before exiting at the other end. 0 -L- n Figure P34.36
34. Consider a beam of light from the left entering a prism of apex angle O as shown in Figure P34.34. Two angles of incidence, 0, and 0,, are shown as well as two angles of refraction, 0, and 0,. Show that O = 0, + 0g- 2 %D 2 3°
The data on a CD is stored as a series of pits in a spiral track on a metal information layer (see figure (a) below). Affixed to this layer is a layer of polycarbonate plastic with a thickness of t = 1.20 mm and an index of refraction of n = 1.55 (see figure (b) below). A laser beam enters this plastic layer from below and is refracted to a width of a = 1.60 μm in order to read the data on a single track. A lens makes the beam converge into a cone with an apex angle 20₁ before it enters the plastic layer, and its width as it enters the layer is w = 0.698 mm. What is the incidence angle 0₁ (in degrees) of the light at the edge of the conical beam? 26.7 Andrew Syred/Photo Researchers, Inc. 2 X a b -bª -Information layer Plastic n = 1.55 Air
