(b) The purpose is for improving impedance matching. Sound wave incident on wateris almost totally re‡ected. Elastic (bulk) modulus of gel is much smaller than thatof water and the gel impedance is in between the air and water.
7. Unpolarized light falls on a glass surface at the Brewster’s angle. The index of refractionof the glass is n g = 1 :65:
(a) Explain what is meant by unpolarized light wave.(b) What is the incident angle?(c) How much light power is re‡ected at the surface? The re‡ection coe¢cient for
the electric …eld tangential to the surface is
r = sin( 0
B )sin( 0 + B )
where 0 is the refraction angle.
Solution
(a) In unpolarized wave, the electric …eld is randomly oriented without preferreddirection. If the wave is propagating in z direction, the electric …eld consists of xand y components,
E x e x + E y e y
In unpolarized wave, the …elds E x and E y are uncorrelated but the intensities areequal, I x = I y : If the total intensity is I 0 ; I x = I y = 0:5I 0 :
(b) The Brewster’s angle is
B = tan 1 (n
g) = tan 1 (1:65) = 58:78
(c) The re‡ection coe¢cient of the electric …eld parallel to the boundary is
r = sin( 0

= sin(31:22 58:78 )

(b) The electric …elds due to the unequal slits are E 0 and 1:5E 0 : The phase di¤erence
is still given by = 2 d sin
: The total …eld is
E t = q E 20 + (1 :5E 0 )2 + 2 1:5E 20 cos

(b) (Unrelated to (a)) Lake with cleat water appears dark blue but lake with conta-minated water appears whitish. Explain in terms of Rayleigh and Mie scattering.Blue water color is due to Rayleigh scattering by water molecules much smallerthan wavelengths in visible range. The intensity of Rayleigh scattering is propor-tional to 1= 4 : Blue color is dominant.Whitish color is caused by Mie scattering by larger molecules. In this case, scat-tered power is insensitive to , all colors scattered evenly.

(a) The magni…cation when the image is formed at in…nity is
m =161:5
252
= 133:3
When formed at 25 cm,

(b) For viewing, the object distance should be
1ov

1f o
; ov = 17:60 mm
The object distance for the eyepiece can be found from
1o
1250
