GO In Fig. 35-51a, the waves along rays 1 and 2 are initially in phase, with the same wavelength λ in air. Ray 2 goes through a material with length L and index of refraction n. The rays are then reflected by mirrors to a common point P on a screen. Suppose that we can vary n from n = 1.0 to n = 2.5. Suppose also that, from n = 1.0 to n = ns = 1.5, the intensity I of the light at point P varies with n as given in Fig. 35-51b. At what values of n greater than 1.4 is intensity I (a) maximum and (b) zero? (c) What multiple of λ gives the phase difference between the rays at point P when n = 2.0?

- 63 In Fig. 33-60, light enters a 90° triangular prism at point P with inci- dent angle 6, and then some of it refracts at point Q with an angle of refraction of 90°. (a) What is the in- dex of refraction of the prism in terms of 6? (b) What, numerically, is the maximum value that the index of refraction can have? Does light emerge at Q if the incident angle at P is (c) increased slightly and (d) decreased slightly? Figure 33-60 Problem 63.arrow_forward*66 o In Fig. 33-62, a light ray in air is incident at angle 6, on a block of transparent plastic with an index of refraction of 1.56. The dimen- sions indicated are H= 2.00 cm and W = 3.00 cm. The light passes through the block to one of its sides and there undergoes reflection (in- side the block) and possibly refraction (out into the air). This is the point of first reflection. The re- flected light then passes through the block to another of its sides-a point of second reflection. If 6 = 40°, on which side is the point of (a) first reflection and (b) second reflection? If there is refraction at the point of (c) first reflection and (d) second reflection, give the angle of refraction; if not, answer "none." If 61 = 70°, on which side is the point of (e) first reflection and (f) second reflection? If there is refrac- tion at the point of (g) first reflection and (h) second reflection, give the angle of refraction; if not, answer “none." н Figure 33-62 Problem 66.arrow_forwardThe index of refraction of a glass rod is 1.48 at T = 20.0°C and varies linearly with temperature, with a coefficient of 2.50 x 10-5/C°.

If it is incident at point A at the critical angle for the interface be- tween materials 2 and 3, what are (a) the angle of refraction at point B and (b) the initial angle 0? If, in- stead, light is incident at B at the critical angle for the interface between materials 2 and 3, what are (c) the angle of refraction at point A and (d) the initial angle e?

Find the image produced by that surface. Then treat that im- age as an object whose light passes through the wall's inside sur- face, which acts as another refracting surface.)
