A narrow beam of light containing red (660 nm) and blue (470 nm) wavelengths travels from air through a 1.60 cm thick flat piece of crown glass and back to air again. The beam strikes the glass at a 25.0° incident angle.

(a) At what angles do the two colors emerge from the glass?

red °

blue °

(b) By what distance (in cm) are the red and blue separated when they emerge?

cm

Blue light of wavelength 470 nm is used to illuminate a pair of narrow slits that are 0.020 mm apart and 1.60 m from a screen. What is the angular position of the second-order minimum (dark spot)? What is the distance on the screen between the central maximum and the second-order minimum? The reason there is a dark spot at this location on the screen is because light from one slit has to travel further than light from the other...
