    The document contains solutions to physics problems from the textbook "Fundamentals of Physics Sixth Edition" by Halliday, Resnick, and Walker. The problems involve calculations related to electromagnetic waves, radiation pressure, polarization, and refraction through a glass plate. Key results include expressions for the electric and magnetic field amplitudes of an electromagnetic wave given its intensity, calculations of power and radiation pressure from a transmitter, and formulas for the variation of transmitted intensity with polarization angle and displacement through a glass plate with small angles of incidence.

    19. (a) The average rate of energy ow per unit area, or intensity, is related to the electric eld amplitude 2 Em by I = Em /20 c, so Em = = 20 cI = 2(4 107 H/m)(2.998 108 m/s)(10 106 W/m )

    8.7 102 V/m .

    (b) The amplitude of the magnetic eld is given by Bm = Em 8.7 102 V/m = = 2.9 1010 T . c 2.998 108 m/s

    (c) At a distance r from the transmitter, the intensity is I = P/4r2 , where P is the power of the transmitter. Thus P = 4r2 I = 4 (10 103 m)2 (10 106 W/m ) = 1.3 104 W .

    25. (a) Since c = f , where is the wavelength and f is the frequency of the wave, f= (b) The magnetic eld amplitude is Bm = Em 300 V/m = = 1.00 106 T . c 2.998 108 m/s c 2.998 108 m/s = = 1.0 108 Hz . 3.0 m

    B must be in the positive z direction when E is in the positive y direction in order for E B to be in the positive x direction (the direction of propagation). (c) The angular wave number is k= The angular frequency is = 2f = 2 (1.0 108 Hz) = 6.3 108 rad/s . (d) The intensity of the wave is I=

    2 2 = = 2.1 rad/m . 3.0 m

    (e) Since the sheet is perfectly absorbing, the rate per unit area with which momentum is delivered to it is I/c, so 2 IA (119 W/m )(2.0 m2 ) dp = = = 8.0 107 N . dt c 2.998 108 m/s The radiation pressure is pr = dp/dt 8.0 107 N = 4.0 107 Pa . = A 2.0 m2

    39. Let I0 be the intensity of the incident beam and f be the fraction that is polarized. Thus, the intensity of the polarized portion is f I0 . After transmission, this portion contributes f I0 cos2 to the intensity of the transmitted beam. Here is the angle between the direction of polarization of the radiation and the polarizing direction of the lter. The intensity of the unpolarized portion of the incident beam is (1 f )I0 and after transmission, this portion contributes (1 f )I0 /2 to the transmitted intensity. Consequently, the transmitted intensity is 1 I = f I0 cos2 + (1 f )I0 . 2 As the lter is rotated, cos2 varies from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 1, so the transmitted intensity varies from a minimum of 1 Imin = (1 f )I0 2 to a maximum of 1 1 Imax = f I0 + (1 f )I0 = (1 + f )I0 . 2 2 The ratio of Imax to Imin is Imax 1+f = . Imin 1f Setting the ratio equal to 5.0 and solving for f , we get f = 0.67.

    49. Let be the angle of incidence and 2 be the angle of refraction at the left face of the plate. Let n be the index of refraction of the glass. Then, the law of refraction yields sin = n sin 2 . The angle of incidence at the right face is also 2 . If 3 is the angle of emergence there, then n sin 2 = sin 3 . Thus sin 3 = sin and 3 = . The emerging ray is parallel to the incident ray. We wish to derive an expression for x in terms of . If D is the length of the ray in the glass, then D cos 2 = t and D = t/ cos 2 . The angle in the diagram equals 2 and x = D sin = D sin( 2 ). Thus x= t sin( 2 ) . cos 2

    If all the angles , 2 , 3 , and 2 are small and measured in radians, then sin , sin 2 2 , sin( 2 ) 2 , and cos 2 1. Thus x t( 2 ). The law of refraction applied to the point of incidence at the left face of the plate is now n2 , so 2 /n and xt n = (n 1)t . n
