Optics PHYS322 Review quiz 1 Name: 1. (Dor: The optical index of any material (not vacuum) varies with frequency. 27 othe frequency of light can change as it enters a crystal (consider low intensity—no nonlinear effects). 3. TofP)The refractive index cannot be less than one 4.7 of When light is incident upon a material interface at Brewster’s angle, only one polatization can transmit. 5.7 othe critical angle for total internal reflection exists on both sides of a material interface. 1 F: From any given location above a (smooth flat) surface of water, itis possible to see Objects positioned anywhere under the water. 7 @: F: From any given location beneath a (smooth flat) surface of water, it is possible to see Objects positioned anywhere above the water. 8, CD)r F: An evanescent wave travels parallel to the surface interface on the transmitted side. 9, (Dr: For incident angles beyond the critical angle for total intemal reflection, the Fresnel Soefficients t, and ty are both zero. 10. As it moves away from the source the amplitude of a spherical wave: (ecreases B) increases C) stays the same _D) decreases, increases or stays the Same depending on functional shape of the wave 11. If the amplitude of the electric field component of an electromagnetic wave increases twice, then the irradiance: A) increases twice (Bojnereases 4 times C) increases 16 times D) does not change E) decreases twice F) cannot be calculated without knowing the magnetic field components 12.7 of-For homogeneous transparent substances, lateral scattering is more efficient for the denser substance.Problem. ‘A plane harmonic, linearly polarized light wave has an electric field intensity given by: o 2 % & E,(y,2,0= 20e09{n10°% [1-5 ]} Ove) 7; sd while traveling in a piece of glass (i.e. wave speed is not c). 7 a) (2 pts) Along which axis the light travels? x ) (3 pts) In what direction does it travel? + ) (5 pts) Find the frequency of this electromagnetic wave.

(Hint: At the Brewster’s (or polarization) angle r~0). (b) Calculate 6. (c) What percent of the light (power) goes all the way through the prism if it is p-polarized? Ignore light that might make multiple reflections within the prism and come out with directions other than that shown by the arrow. Hint: p-polarized light has an E-field in the plane of incidence; s-polarized light has an E-field perpendicular to the plane of incidence. (d) What percent for s-polarized light?
