Find the polarizing angle of a dense flint glass having an index of 1.768

Your teacher gives you a piece of cardboard with two pinholes on it, saying that they are separated by 205 μm ± 3%. In order to test this, you set up a double slit apparatus with the screen at a distance of 3.00 m away from the cardboard. You use a helium-neon laser (wavelength 638.2 nm) to generate an interference pattern. You measure the distance from the first to the seventh nodal line to be 56.9mm. Did your teacher give you accurate value for the separation of the pinholes?

Red light with a wavelength of 725 nm shines through a single slit, and forms a pattern on a screen placed 1.25 m away. If the width of the slit is 18.5 micrometers, find the width of the central maximum (a) in degrees and (b) in centimeters.

An ideal gas has a volume of 100cm3³ at 1.1*10^5Pa and 27°C. What is it volume at 2*10^5Pa and 60°C?

Light from a source of wavelength 475 nm passes through a single slit and falls on a screen 2.5 m away. If the slit width is 2.00 μm, how many maxima occur, including the central maximum?
