9. In a Newton’s ring arrangement, light consisting of wavelengths and incidents normally on a plane convex lens of radius of curvature R resting on a glass plate. If the nth dark ring due to coincides with (n+1)th dark ring due to , then show that the radius of the nth dark ring of is given by .

A ray of light is traveling in a glass with an index of refraction of n = 1.50 and strikes a glass/air interface. If the angle of incidence is 35°, Calculate the angle of refraction?


A glass lens of refractive index 1.5 is placed in a trough of liquid. What must be the refractive index of the liquid in order to mark the lens disappear?
A point traversed half the distance with a velocity v0. The remaining part of the distance was covered with velocity v1 for half the time, and with velocity v2 for the other half of the time. Find the mean velocity of the point averaged over the whole time of motion.
