The drawing shows a rectangular block of glass (n = 1.52) surrounded by a liquid with n = 1.65. A ray of light is incident on the glass at point A with a 30.0° angle of incidence. At what angle does the ray leave the glass at point B? Number Units 30.0
Use the exact values you enter to make later calculations. A ray of light strikes a flat, 2.00-cm-thick block of glass (n = 1.42) at an angle of 0 = 34.0° with respect to the normal (see figure below). 2.00 cm (a) Find the angle of refraction at the top surface and the angle of incidence at the bottom surface. (b) Find the refracted angle at the bottom surface. (c) Find the lateral distance d by which the light beam is shifted. cm (d) Calculate the speed of light in the glass. m/s (e) Calculate the time required for the light to pass through the glass block. (f) Is the travel time through the block affected by the angle of incidence? O No Yes, a slightly larger angle will decrease the travel time. Yes, a slightly larger angle will increase the travel time.
In the figure, light is incident at angle 01 = 37.0° on a boundary between two transparent materials. Some of the light travels down through the next three layers of transparent materials, while some of it reflects upward and then escapes into the air. If n1 = 1.28, n2 = 1.40, n3 = 1.34 and n4 = 1.45, what is the value of (a) 05 and (b) 04? Air N2 n4 (a) 85: %3D Number Units (b) 84 Number Units
