Textbook Question
Chapter 36, Problem 50PQ
Optical flats are flat pieces of glass used to determine the flatness of other optical components. They are placed at an angle above the component as shown in Figure P36.49A, and monochromatic light is incident and observed from above, leading to interference fringes. Figure P36.49C shows the results of one of these tests. What is the approximate difference in the gap thickness between the left and right sides of the optical flat and the component? Is it possible to determine from this figure alone which side has the greater gap thickness (left or right)?
Figure P36.49 Problems 49 and 50.

You are told that the two points x = 0 and x = 0.0900 m are within one
wavelength of each other. If the wave is moving in the +x-direction, determine the
wavelength.
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate
units.

Part C
Find the height yi
from which the rock was launched.
Express your answer in meters to three significant figures.
Learning Goal:
To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 4.1 for projectile motion problems.
A rock thrown with speed 12.0 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 19.0 m before hitting the ground. From what height was the rock thrown? Use the value g = 9.800 m/s2 for the free-fall acceleration.
PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY 4.1 Projectile motion problems
MODEL: Is it reasonable to ignore air resistance? If so, use the projectile motion model.
VISUALIZE: Establish a coordinate system with the x-axis horizontal and the y-axis vertical. Define symbols and identify what the problem is trying to find. For a launch at angle θ, the initial velocity components are vix=v0cosθ and viy=v0sinθ.
SOLVE: The acceleration is known: ax=0 and ay=−g. Thus, the problem becomes one of…
