For wavelengths of two lines in a vacuum measuring 3033.71 and 3033.75 angstroms.

(a) Calculate the frequency for both wavelengths

(b) calculate the index of refraction for air (at the frequency of the lower wavelength.

(c) A light source emits only at the lower wavelength (3033.71 angstroms) and is directed into a Michelson interferometer. If the moving mirror in the interferometer travels at a velocity of 0.15cm/sec and moves a total distance of 0.40 cm what would the resulting interferogram look like? sketch intensity vs retardation that would be obtained.

(d) Calculate the frequency of the resulting interferogram

(e) Would this interferometer be able to "barely resolve" the two emission lines at 3033.71 and 3033.75 angstroms?
