Light in a vacuum is incident on the surface of a glass slab. In the vacuum, the beam makes an angle ofwith the normal to the surface, while in the glass it makes an angle ofwith the normal. What is the index of refraction of the glass?
The refractive index of glass is .

Question: What is the radiation pressure 1.5maway from a 500wlight bulb? Assume that the surface on which the pressure is exerted faces the bulb and is perfectly absorbing and that the bulb radiates uniformly in all directions.
In Fig. 33-55, a long vertical pole extends from the bottom of a swimming pool to a point above the water. Sunlight is incident at angle . What is the length of the shadow of the pole on the level bottom of the pool?
In Fig. 33-41, a beam of light, with intensityand polarization parallel to a y-axis, is sent into a system of two polarizing sheets with polarizing directions at angles of and to the y axis. What is the intensity of the light transmitted by the two-sheet system?
An isotropic point source emits light at wavelength, at the rate of. A light detector is positionedfrom the source. What is the maximum rate at which the magnetic component of the light changes with time at the detector鈥檚 location?
In Fig. 33-65, a light ray enters a glass slab at point A at an incident angle and then undergoes total internal reflection at point B. (The reflection at A is not shown.) What minimum value for the index of refraction of the glass can be inferred from this information?
