(i) An object is placed at a position p > f from a concave mirror as shown in Figure CQ9.10a, where f is the focal length of the mirror. In such a situation, an image is formed at a distance q from the mirror, as we discuss in Chapter 26. The distances are related by the mirror equation: In a finite time interval, the object is moved to the right to a position at the focal point F of the mirror. Show that the image of the object moves at a speed greater than the speed of light. (ii) A laser pointer is suspended in a horizontal plane and set into rapid rotation as shown in Figure CQ9.10b. Show that the spot of light it produces on a distant screen can move across the screen at a speed greater than the speed of light. (If you carry out this experiment, make sure the direct laser light cannot enter a person’s eyes.) (iii) Argue that the experiments in parts (i) and (ii) do not invalidate the principle that no material, no energy, and no information can move faster than light moves in a vacuum. Figure CQ9.10

6 Light rays enter the plane surface of a glass hemisphere of radius 5 cm and refractive index 1.5. a. Using the system matrix representing the hemisphere, de- termine the exit elevation and angle of a ray that enters parallel to the optical axis and at an elevation of 1 cm. b. Enlarge the system to a distance x beyond the hemi- sphere and find the new system matrix as a function of x. c. Using the new system matrix, determine where the ray described above crosses the optical axis.
Austin did a measurement for the speed of light in an experiment. He found that the speed of light is 4.0 x 1018 m/s in air. When Nancy Drew saw his result, she immediately informed him that he made a mistake. How did Nancy know? O Light cannot have a speed. O His result would be correct if the experiment was done under water. O His result would be correct, if the light medium was in vacuum, but not in air. O None of the choices is correct. O Speed of light cannot be greater than 3 x 108 m/s.
