    The document outlines assignments for 5 lectures on topics related to interference and diffraction of light. Lecture 1 addresses energy loss and coherent sources in interference phenomena. Lecture 2 covers Fresnel's biprism and determining wavelength of light. Lecture 3 describes fringe patterns from a wedge film and conditions for bright and dark fringes. Lectures 4 and 5 both concern using Newton's rings to determine a liquid's refractive index by deriving the formula used.
