2n t cos r = (2m + 1) \(\frac{\lambda}{2}\)
For maximum
m = 2 (For visible region), n - refractive index.
cos r = cos 0 = 1
t = 5 x 10-5 x 10-2 = 5 x 10-7 m
\(n=\frac{(2m+1)\frac{\lambda}{2}}{2t}=\frac{5\lambda}{2 \times 2 \times t}\)
\(=\frac{5 \times5320\times10^{-10}}{4 \times 5 \times 10^{-7}}\)
\(=\frac{5 \times5320\times10^{-10}}{20}=1330 \times 10^3\)
n = 1.330
7.
I = l1 + l2 + 2\(\sqrt{I_1I_2}\)cos θ
If cos θ = cos 0 = l, I is max
= I+ 4I + 2\(\sqrt{41^2}\) cos 0
= 5I + 4I = 91
If cos π = -1, I is min
Imin = I + 4I + 2\(\sqrt{41^2}\) cos π
= 5I + 4I(-1)
= 5I + 4I = I
(Imax, Imin)= (9I, I)

x = 3 mm = 3 x 10-3 m
a = 1 mm = 1 x 10-3 m
\(d=\frac{xa}{1.22 \lambda}\)
\(d=\frac{3 \times1\times10^{-6}}{1.22 \times500\times10^{-9}}\)
\(=\frac{3 \times1\times10^{-6}}{6.10 \times 10^{-7}}\)
\(d=\frac{30}{6.1}=5 m\)
10.
Refractive index for violet is more and wavelength for violet is very low comparing other colours. So, the letter which appears to be raised more is violet.
11.
For total internal reflection,
sin i > sin c
\(n=\frac{1}{sin \ c}\)
\(sin \ c=\frac{1}{n}\)
\(sin \ i>\frac{1}{n}\)
\(n>\frac{1}{sin \ i}\)
n >\(\sqrt{2}\)
n >1.414 = 1.5
12.
Apparent depth = 3 + 5 = 8 cm
Real depth = thickness of the slab = t
n = 1.5
\(n=\frac{Real \ depth}{Apparent \ depth}\)
\(\therefore 1.5=\frac{t}{8}\)
t = 1.5 x 8
t = 12 cm
13.
\(\frac{1}{f} =(n-1)\left(\frac{1}{R_1}-\frac{1}{R_2}\right) \)
\(=(1.5-1)\left(\frac{1}{\infty}-\frac{1}{(-10)}\right)\)
(Since plano convex lens)
\(=0.5\left[\frac{1}{10}\right]=\frac{1}{20} \)
\(\mathrm{f}_t =20 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Formula for silvered lenses
\(\frac{1}{\mathrm{~F}} =\frac{2}{\mathrm{f}_1}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{f}_m} \)
\(\frac{1}{\mathrm{~F}} =\frac{2}{20}+\frac{1}{\infty} \)
\(\therefore \mathrm{F} =\frac{20}{2}=10 \mathrm{~cm}\)
14.
\(\frac{I}{f}=\left(\frac{\mu_{\mathrm{L}}}{\mu_L}-1\right)\left(\frac{1}{R_1}-\frac{1}{R_2}\right)\)

19.
At end A,
\(\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{u_A}+\frac{1}{v_A} \)
\(\therefore \frac{1}{v_A} =\frac{1}{-10}-\frac{1}{-20} \)
\(\frac{1}{v_A} =-\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{20}=\frac{-2+1}{20}=-\frac{1}{20} \)
\(v_A =-20 \mathrm{~cm} \)
\(\left|v_{\wedge}\right|=20 \mathrm{~cm}\)
At end B,
\(\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{u_B}+\frac{1}{v_B} \)
\(\frac{1}{v_B} =\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u_B}, \)
\(u_B =-30 \mathrm{~cm} \)
\(\frac{1}{v_B} =-\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{30} \)
\(=\frac{-3+1}{30}=\frac{-2}{30}=\frac{-1}{15} \)
\(v_B =-15 \mathrm{~cm} \)
\(\left|v_B\right| =15 \mathrm{~cm} \)
\(\therefore \quad\left|\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{A}}\right|-\left|\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{B}}\right| \) is the length of the image
= 20 - 15 = 5 cm
20.
v = nג
In an isotropic medium, there is no change in the frequency of the light. So, the speed of light depends on wavelength of light.
