Optics 7 Question 3

3. A light wave is incident normally on a glass slab of refractive index 1.5. If 4 of light gets reflected and the amplitude of the electric field of the incident light is 30V/m, then the amplitude of the electric field for the wave propogating in the glass medium will be

(2019 Main, 12 Jan I)

(a) 30V/m

(b) 6V/m

(c) 10V/m

(d) 24V/m

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. Energy of a light wave Intensity of the light wave

Since, intensity =εvA2

where, ε is the permittivity of the medium in which light is travelling with velocity v and A is its amplitude.

Since, only 4 of the energy of the light gets reflected.

96 of the energy of the light is transmitted.
