* What happens to a light wave when it travels from air into glass? Its speed remains the same. Its speed increases. Its wavelength increases. Its wavelength remains the same. Its frequency remains the same. A source emits monochromatic light of wavelength 495 nm in air. When the light passes through a liquid, its wavelength reduces to 434 nm. What is the liquid’s index of refraction? 1.26 1.49 1.14 1.33 2.03 Carbon disulfide (n = 1.63) is poured into a container made of crown glass (n = 1.52). What is the critical angle for total internal reflection of a light ray in the liquid when it is incident on the liquid-to-glass surface? 89.2° 68.8° 21.2° 1.07° 43.0° What is the order of magnitude of the time interval required for light to travel 10 km as in Galileo’s attempt to measure the speed of light? several seconds several milliseconds several microseconds several nanoseconds In each of the following situations, a wave passes through an opening in an absorbing wall. Rank the situations in order from the one in which the wave is best described by the ray approximation to the one in which the wave coming through the opening spreads out most nearly equally in all directions in the hemisphere beyond the wall. (a) The sound of a low whistle at 1 kHz  passes through a doorway 1 m wide. (b) Red light passes through the pupil of  your eye. (c) Blue light passes through the pupil of  your eye. (d) The wave broadcast by an AM radio  station passes through a doorway  1 m wide. (e) An x-ray passes through the space  between bones in your elbow joint. e, b, d, c, a b, c, a, d, e c, e, b, d, a d, c, a, e, b e, c, b, a, d The index of refraction for water is about 4/3. What happens as a beam of light travels from air into water? Its speed increases to 4/3 c, and its frequency decreases. Its speed decreases to 3/4 c, and its wavelength decreases by a factor of 3/4. Its speed decreases to 3/4 c, and its wavelength i
