1. Lecture 27 Thin Lenses Diffraction

2. Problems due Wednesday 17: 13, 17, 19, WB 25: 1-9 13: diffraction grating 17: ditto 19: skip b WB: 1-9 pictures of interference

3. Thin lenses A brief detour to cover a topic needed for lab this week.

4. object image s s’ Converging lens f h h’

5. Two Lenses The image formed by one lens can be the object for the second lens. For the second lens, s 2 is the distance from the image formed by the first lens and the location of the second lens. f>0 for a converging lens, the only kind we will deal with in lab this week.

6. Review of Friday Electromagnetic wave

7. Electromagnetic Waves Slide 25-33

8. Sinusoidal Waves Single frequency (single color) and single wavelength, λ. TRANSVERSE with B and E perpendicular to the direction of motion. In vacuum velocity = c = 3.00 x 10 8 m/s Right hand rule relates E, B and direction of propagation – E = cB

9. Sinusoidal Waves Continued Wave traveling in the +x direction with E polarized along the y-axis, and hence B along the z-axis.

10. Polarization Slide 25-37

11. Two slit interference Young demonstrated light behaved as a wave. Bright fringes occurred at angles For small angles

12. Example Two narrow slits 0.04 mm apart are illuminated by light from a HeNe laser (λ = 633 nm). A. What is the angle of the first (m = 1) bright fringe? B. What is the angle of the thirtieth bright fringe? Slide 17-11

13. The Diffraction Grating Slide 17-12

14. The Intensity Pattern Due to a Diffraction Grating Slide 17-14

15. The Fringes Become Very Narrow as the Number of Slits is Increased Slide 17-15

16. A Diffraction Grating Splits Light into the Wavelengths That Make It Up Slide 17-16
