(A) Show a model as to how white light interacts with a t-shirt that appears to an observer as red and white striped in terms of light wave absoprtion and reflection.
(B) Make a model of what will happen when white light is shined through a blue and green filter stacked on top of one another. It will appear black because white light is absorbed but show this in a skectch.
No glass is perfectly transparent. Mainly because of reflections, about 92% of light passes through an average sheet of clear windowpane. The 8% loss is not noticed through a single sheet, but through several sheets, the loss is apparent. How much light is transmitted by a double-paned window (one with two sheets of glass)?
A narrow beam of light is incident on one surface of a plane parallel plate of glass. The index of which is 1.62 and has a thickness of 5 cm at an angle of 45 degrees to the normal, trace the path of light through the plate. What will be the direction of the emergent light if the second surface of the glass is immersed in an oil with an index of 1.49Answer:Air to Glass: 25 degrees 52'Glass to Oil: 28 degrees 19'Oil to Air: 44 degrees 58'Above are the answers to the question.
