Homework Statement Monochromatic light (λ = 500 nm) from a particular light source has a frequency bandwidth Δν = 6 x 1011 Hz. (a) What is the coherence length Δx and the coherence time Δt of this light? (b) What is approximately the largest optical path length difference in an...

Homework Statement An argon laser emits 1 watt of continuous light (λ= 5.145 x 10-7 m) in a parallel beam of 2 mm diameter in vacuum. Homework Equations (a) What is the wavelength, frequency, period, wave number, velocity, intensity, and amplitude of the electric field of the laser...

A beam of unpolarized light (III=IP= I0 and EII= EP= E0) is incident from air on a plane interface of water (n = 1.33). (a) Under the incident angle of θi = 0°, 30°, and 70°, what is the amplitude (E) and intensity (I) of the reflected beam (relative to the values E0 and I0 of the incident...
