A thin piece of glue of index of refraction n=1.33is formed in the shape of a wedge. The wedge is 9μmat its thickest point.light of wavelength 610 nm is shone from above. The wedge is 8cm long

(a) When viewed in transmission ,what is the distance between the corner and the m=7 maximum?

(b) What is the distance between two consecutive bright fringes viewed in reflection?

(c) What are you most likely to see at the corner, a bright or a dark fringe?Explain?

(d) How many full bright fringes do you see if the wedge were to float on a liquid of n=1.4

(e) How much larger is the distance between two dark fringes viewed in reflection as opposed to that obtained when viewed in transmission?

Expert Solution

Given data,

refractive index n=1.33

thickest point of the wedge has height dmax=9 *10-6 m

wedge has a length 8 cm.

Wavlength of light is .

(a),(b),(c),(d) have been explained with diagram and solved in attached hand written notes. Please follow.

A 269 nm thin film with index of refraction 1.71 floats on water (with index of refraction 1.333). What is the largest wavelength of reflected light for which constructive interference occur? Answer in units of m (for this part I got 1.84 x 10 ^-6 m) I need help with the second part of the question: What is the 2nd largest wavelength that interferes constructively? Answer in units of m.

A thin film having an index of refraction of 1.50 is surrounded by air. It is illuminated normally by white light. Analysis of the reflected light shows that the wavelengths 360, 450, and 600 nm are the only missing wavelengths in the visible portion of the spectrum. That is, for those wavelengths, there is destructive interference. (a) What is the thickness of the film? nm (b) What wavelengths in the visible portion of the spectrum are brightest in the reflected...
