2 Problem II: Ray Diagram, 10P total Detailed Solution Steps for Exam Version #1A (see drawings below for all versions): 1P: Draw optical axis, mirror principal plane, H, and correctly placed image arrow to the left of the mirror, with all 3 elements properly labeled Image arrow can be chosen to point either upward or downward 1P: Correctly identify and label outgoing side of mirror, to the right of mirror Reasoning: i) image is virtual à by sign convention, image is located not on outgoing side ii) image is to the left of mirror à to the left of mirror is not the outgoing side iii) à outgoing side is to the right of the mirror 1P: Correctly identify and label incoming side, to the right of the mirror: Reasoning: i) The device is a mirror with reflected rays sent back to incident side, ie, leaving mirror on same to side they come in ii) à Incoming side is same as outgoing side: to the right of mirror 1P: Correctly place focal points F and F : F and F to the left of the mirror and to right of image on the optical axis Label F and F Reasoning: i) mirror is divergent, ie, has negative focal length f<0 ii) à by sign convention, F is not on in and F is not on out side, ie, F and F are both to the left of mirror iii) F and F are at both at a distance f from mirror à F and F coincide, at same distance from and on same side of the mirror iv) absolute image distance from mirror, d, is greater than absolute focal length, f v) à F and F are located to the right of the image, ie, between image and mirror 2P: Correctly draw one of the three principal ray pairs (see drawing Examples 1, 2): Either: F-F -ray Or: P-P -ray Or: C-C -ray 2P: Correctly draw a second principal ray pair (see drawing Examples 1, 2): Either: P-P -ray Or: C-C -ray Or: F-F -ray Note: For a mirror (unlike a mirror!) the C-ray and C -ray are two distinct lines, each intersecting the optical axis at the same angle, but one from above, the other from below So, the C -ray for a mirror would have to be constructed from the C-ray, by reflecting the C-ray at the optical axis That s unlike a lens, where the C-ray is simply continued straight through the mirror to get the C -ray 1P: Correctly draw object at intersection of two incoming principal rays, as arrow Object will be to the left of mirror Object arrow will be oriented opposite to image arrow, ie, inverted relative to image So, if image arrow was drawn upward, object arrow must point downward Else, if image arrow was drawn downward, object arrow must point upward Either choice of image arrow is acceptable 1P: State: object is virtual Reasoning: i) object is found to the right of the mirror à object is not on the incoming side ii) à by sign convention: object is virtual and d<0

6 Problem III: Refraction at a Prism Immersed in Air, 35 P total = 15P(a) + 10P(b) + 10P(c) Detailed Solution for Exam Version #1A: Exercise 1 Surface L Surface R ϴ 1 O Glass n G Refraction at a prism immersed in air: Q α α Surface B Prism surface B and the incident ray (outside the prism) are horizontal The angle between prism surfaces L and B is α = 15 o The index of refraction of the glass is n G = 210 The refracted ray from surface L inside the prism strikes surface B a) Since incident ray (IR) is parallel to surface B (SB), the angle between IR and surface L (SL) is a=15 o That angle a and angle of incidence, Q1, add up to 90 o, since Q1 is measured from IR to the normal to surface L (NSL) Hence, the angle of incidence, Q 1, is [7P] Q1 = 90 o - a = 90 o - 15 o = 75 o By Snell s law of refraction: nair sin(q1) = ng sin(q2) and we can use nair» 10 à sin(q2) = (nair / ng ) sin(q1) = (10/210) sin(75 o ) = Hence, the angle of refraction, Q 2, is [8P] à Q2 = arcsin( ) = o b) Sum of interior angles in triangle OPQ is 180 o Hence, see drawing above: [8P] 180 o = (90 o + Q2 ) + f + a à f = 180 o - (90 o + Q2 + a) = 90 o - (27385 o + 15 o ) = o ϴ 2 φ c) That angle f and angle of incidence, Q3, add up to 90 o, since Q3 is measured from ray inside the prism (IP) to the normal of surface B (NSB) Hence: [5P] Q3 = 90 o - f = 90 o o = o The critical angle of incidence at surface B is: sin(qcrit) = (nair / ng ) = (10/210) = [5P] à Qcrit = arsin(nair / ng ) = arcsin(047619) = o à Q3 > Qcrit à Actual angle of incidence at SB exceeds critical angle of incidence à The ray incident at SB will undergo total internal reflection and no refracted ray emerges through SB from the prism into the air Alternatively, we could also use Snell s law to calculate the sine of the angle of refraction at SB (call it Q4, not shown in drawing), assuming there was a refracted ray: [10P-Alt] sin(q4) = (ng / nair ) sin(q3) = (21/10) sin(42385 o ) = 1416 > 1 Since sin(q4) exceeds 1, the angle of refraction, Q4, does not exist and no refracted ray exits at SB ϴ 3 P

7 Detailed Solution for Exam Version #1D: Exercise 2 ϴ 1 F Ɣ H Surface R α ϴ 2 ψ G Surface L α Glass n G ϴ 5 Refraction at a prism immersed in air: Surface B Prism surface B and the incident ray (outside the prism) are horizontal The angle between prism surfaces L and B is α = 35 o The apex angle between prism surfaces L and R is γ = 97 o The index of refraction of the glass is n G = 160 The refracted ray from surface L inside the prism strikes surface B a) Since incident ray (IR) is parallel to surface B (SB), the angle between IR and surface L (SL) is a=19 o That angle a and angle of incidence, Q1, add up to 90 o, since Q1 is measured from IR to the normal to surface L (NSL) Hence: [7P] Q1 = 90 o - a = 90 o - 35 o = 55 o By Snell s law of refraction: nair sin(q1) = ng sin(q2) and we can use nair» 10 à sin(q2) = (nair / ng ) sin(q1) = (10/160) sin(55 o ) = [8P] à Q2 = arcsin( ) = o b) Sum of interior angles in triangle FGH is 180 o Hence, see drawing above: [8P] 180 o = (90 o - Q2 ) + y + g à y = 180 o - (90 o - Q2 + g) = 90 o + Q2 - g y = 90 o o - 97 o = o c) That angle y and angle of incidence, Q5, add up to 90 o, since Q5 is measured from ray inside the prism (IP) to the normal of surface R (NSR) Hence: Q5 = 90 o - y [5P] Q5 = 90 o o = o The critical angle of incidence at surface R (SR) is: sin(qcrit) = (nair / ng ) = (10/16) = [5P] à Qcrit = arcsin( ) = o à Q5 > Qcrit à Actual angle of incidence at SR exceeds critical angle of incidence à The ray incident at SR will undergo total internal reflection and no refracted ray emerges through SR from the prism into the air Alternatively, we could also use Snell s law to calculate the sine of the angle of refraction at SR (call it Q6, not shown in drawing), assuming there was a refracted ray: [10P-Alt] sin(q6) = (ng / nair ) sin(q5) = (16/10) sin(66205 o ) = 1464 > 1 Since sin(q6) exceeds 1, the angle of refraction, Q6, does not exist and no refracted ray exits at SR
