A slab of high quality flat glass, with ...

A slab of high quality flat glass, with parallel faces, is placed in the path of a parallel light beam before it is focussed to a spot by a lens. The glass is rotated slightly back and forth from the dotted centre about an axis coming out ofthe page, as shown in the diagram. According to ray optics the effect on the focussed spot is:

A

There is no movement of the spot

B

The spot moves towards then away from the lens

C

The spot moves up and down parallel to the lens

D

The spot moves along a line making an angle a (neither zero nor `90^(@)`)with axis of lens

A glass cube has side length a and its refractive index is mu = (3)/(2) . A ray of light (AB) is incident normally on one of its face and after passing through the cube it forms a spot S on screen sigma . The cube begins to rotate with angular speed omega about its central axis as shown in the Figure. Immediately after the cube begins to rotate, find the speed of the spot S on the screen.

Consider a light beam incident from air to a glass slab at Brewster's angle as shown in figure. A polaroid is placed in the path of the emergent ray at point P and rotated about an axis passing through the centre and pependicular to the plane of the plaroid.

Consider a light beam incident from air to a glass slab at Brewster's angle as shown in Figure. A polaroid is placed in the path of the emergent ray at point P and rotated an axis passing through the centre and perpendicular to the plane of the polaroid.

A beam of light composed of red and green ray is incident obliquely at a point on the face of rectangular glass slab. When coming out on the opposite parallel face, the red and green ray emerge form

A parallel beam of monochromatic light of wavelength 5900Å falls normally on a convex lens of diameter 10cm which focusses the light on a flat normal screen located at a distance of 20cm from the lens. What would be the radius of the central bright spot formed on the screen?

A thin bi-convex lens made out of a material of refractive index mu_(1) is place in a medium of refractive index mu_(2) . A paraxial beam of light, parallel to the principal axis of the lens, is shown in the figure. Based on the ray diagram, we can conclude that

Answer the following questions (a) In a single slit diffraction experiment, the width of the slit is made double the original width. How does this affect the size and intensity of the central diffraction band? (b) In what way is diffraction from each slit related to the interference pattern in a double-slit experiment? (c) When a tiny circular obstacle is placed in the path of light from a distant source, a bright spot is seen at the centre of the shadow of the obstacle. Explain why? (d) Two students are separated by a 7 m partition wall in a room 10 m high. If both light and sound waves can bend around obstacles, how is it that the students are unable to see each other even though they can converse easily (e) Ray optics is based on the assumption that light travels in a straight line. Diffraction effects (observed when light propagates through small apertures/slits or around small obstacles) disprove this assumption. Yet the ray optics assumption is so commonly used in understanding location and several other properties of images in optical instruments. What is the justification?

A ray of light travelling in air incident on a rectangular glass block and emerges out into the air from the opposite face. Draw a labelled ray diagram to show the complete path of this ray of light. Mark the two points where the refractions of light takes place. What can you say about the final direction of ray of light?
