The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the sc…

Chapter 35, Problem 22P

In Fig. 35-37. two isotropic point sources S1, and S2 emit identical light waves in phase at wavelength λ. The sources lie at separation d on an x axis, and a light detector is moved in a circle of large radius around the midpoint between them. It detects 30 points of zero intensity, including two on the x axis, one of them to the left of the sources and the other to the right of the sources What is the value of d/λ?

5 Figure 36-32 shows four choices for the rectangular opening of a source of either sound waves or light waves. The sides have lengths of either L or 2L, with L being 3.0 Figure 36-31 Question 4. times the wavelength of the waves. Rank the openings according to the extent of (a) left-right spreading and (b) up-down spreading of the waves due to diffraction, greatest first. 7/2 е (гad) (1) (2) (3) (4) Figure 36-32 Question 5.

78 E The primary rainbow described in Problem 77 is the type commonly seen in regions where rainbows appear. It is pro- duced by light reflecting once inside the drops. Rarer is the sec- ondary rainbow described in Module 33-5, produced by light reflecting twice inside the drops (Fig. 33-68a). (a) Show that the angular deviation of light entering and then leaving a spherical water drop is Odev = (180°)k + 20, – 2(k + 1)8,, where k is the number of internal reflections. Using the procedure of Problem 77, find the angle of minimum deviation for (b) red light and (c) blue light in a secondary rainbow. (d) What is the angular width of that rainbow (Fig. 33-21d)? The tertiary rainbow depends on three internal reflections (Fig. 33-68b). It probably occurs but, as noted in Module 33-5, cannot be seen with the eye because it is very faint and lies in the bright sky surrounding the Sun. What is the angle of minimum de- viation for (e) the red light and (f) the blue light in this rainbow? (g)…

(1) Write down the electric and magnetic fields for a monochromatic plane wave of amplitude Eo and frequency o traveling in free space in the negative x direction and polarized in the z direction. (ii) Sketch the wave and give the explicit Cartesian components of k and n. (iii) A reflective glass plate with refractive index n is placed in the yz plane at x = 0. Write down the electric field of the reflected wave from this glass plate.
