A very sharp wedge of glass of index of refraction 1.50 is introduced perpendicularly in the path of one of the interfering beams
of Michelson interferometer illuminated by a narrow beam of light of
wavelength 0.500 ?m. This causes 600 dark fringes to sweep across the
field of view. Calculate the thickness of the glass wedge at the point
where the beam passes through it.

A thin piece of glass with an index of refraction of n2 = 1.50 is placed on top of a medium that has an index of refraction n3 = 2.00, as shown in the figure. A beam of light traveling in air (n1 = 1.00) shines perpendicularly down on the glass. The beam contains light of only two colors, blue light with a certain wavelength and orange light with a certain wavelength. a) The blue light has a wavelength in...

A wedge of silicone gel (index of refraction ns = 1.45) sits on a glass plate (with an index of refraction ng = 1.56). The length of the plate is L = 12 cm and the maximum height of the gel is h = 0.02 mm. Light of a wavelength λ = 600 nm is incident on the gel. 6) What is the separation between the bright bands? A. 1.45 mm B. 1.24 mm C. 2.61 mm D. 1.80 mm...
