16. Picture the Problem: Radio signals travel from Earth to a distant spacecraft. Strategy: Divide the distance by the speed of light to calculate the time for the signal to reach the craft. Solution: Calculate the time:
t = 4.5 1012 m d = = 1.5 10 4 s c 3.00 108 m/s
Insight: This time delay is 4 hours and 10 minutes. When NASA sends a signal to the craft it takes 8 hours and 20 minutes for NASA to receive a confirmation from the satellite. 30. Picture the Problem: The radiation emitted by humans has a wavelength of about 9.0 m. Strategy: Solve equation 25-4 to calculate the frequency. Then compare the frequencies to the ranges given in section 25-3 of the text. Solution: 1. (a) Calculate the frequency:
f =
3.00 108 m/s = 3.3 1013 Hz 9.0 106 m

Strategy: Divide the peak electric field by the square root of two to calculate the rms magnitude of the electric field. Solution: Calculate the rms electric field:

Strategy: Use equation 14-7 to calculate the intensity of the light 3.5 m from the source. Insert the intensity into equation 25-10 to calculate the rms electric field, and then solve equation 25-9 for the magnetic field.

2 Brms (equation 25-10).
Strategy: Write the intensity as the average power divided by the area of the beam. Write the intensity in terms of the rms electric field using equation 25-10 and solve for the electric field. Solution: 1. Write I av in terms of Erms : 2. Solve for the electric field:

Erms = 0.48 kV/m
Insight: Note that the electric field is inversely proportional to the beam diameter. If the diameter is doubled to 4.8 mm, the electric field will drop to 240 V/m. 66. Picture the Problem: The image shows unpolarized light incident upon two polarizers, the transmission axes of which are oriented at some angle with respect to each other. Strategy: Set the intensity after the first polarizer equal to half the intensity before (equation 25-14). Use Malus Law (equation 25-13) to calculate the intensity after the second polarizer. Divide the result by the initial intensity to determine the relative intensity. Solution: 1. Calculate the intensity after the first polarizer: 2. Calculate the intensity after the second polarizer: 3. Divide the final intensity by the initial:
I1 = 1 I0 2 1 I 0 cos 2 2
I 2 = I1 cos 2 =
I2 1 = cos 2 30.0 = 0.375 I0 2
Insight: The exact orientation of the two polarizers is not important, only the relative orientation of their transmission axes.
72. Picture the Problem: The image shows unpolarized laser light passing through three polarizers. Strategy: Use equation 25-14 to calculate the intensity after the first polarizer. Then use Maluss Law (equation 25-13) to calculate the intensity as the light passes through each of the other polarizers. Solution: 1. (a) Use equation 25-14 to calculate I at point A: 2. (b) Use Maluss Law to calculate the intensity at point B: 3. (c) Use Maluss Law to calculate the intensity at point C: 4. (d) Use Maluss Law to calculate the intensity at point C, with the second polarizer removed:
I=
1 I0 2
1 I = I 0 cos 2 30.0 = 0.375 I 0 2
I = ( 0.375I 0 ) cos 2 ( 90.0 30.0 ) = 0.0938I 0

1 I = I 0 cos 2 90.0 = 0 2
Insight: The second filter rotates the polarization so that some light can pass through the third filter.
