How many times will the incident beam in Figure P34.33 (page 922) be reflected by each of the parallel mirrors? Figure P34.33
Light is incident on a prism as shown in Figure P38.31. The prism, an equilateral triangle, is made of plastic with an index of refraction of 1.46 for red light and 1.49 for blue light. Assume the apex angle of the prism is 60.00. a. Sketch the approximate paths of the rays for red and blue light as they travel through and then exit the prism. b. Determine the measure of dispersion, the angle between the red and blue rays that exit the prism. Figure P38.31
Figure P23.28 shows a curved surface separating a material with index of refraction n1 from a material with index n2. The surface forms an image I of object O. The ray shown in red passes through the surface along a radial line. Its angles of incidence and refraction are both zero, so its direction does not change at the surface. For the ray shown in blue, the direction changes according to n1 sin 1 = n2 sin 2. For paraxial rays, we assume 1 and 2 are small, so we may write n1 tan 1 n2 tan 2. The magnification is defined as M = h/h. Prove that the magnification is given by M = n1q/n2p. Figure P23.28

Building contractors often install double-glazed windows to prevent thermal energy (heat) from entering or exiting a building. In addition to being effective insulators, such windows present interesting optical effects. glass In the figure, a double-glazed window consists of two identical panes of glass (ng = 1.46), each yg = 12.0 mm air thick, separated by an air gap of y, = 9.60 mm. If light incident on the glass makes an angle of o = 40.00° with respect to the glass, find the shift in path Ax as the light glass enters the room. Use na = 1.00 for the index of refraction of air.
