The distance of the surface illuminated by the light of the given wavelength is 5,269.32 m.

<h3>Distance of the surface</h3>

The distance of the surface illuminated by the light of the given wavelength is calculated as follows;

D = (rd)/(0.61λ)

where;

  • r is the radius of the illuminated area = 45 cm = 0.45 m
  • d is the diameter of the diameter = 0.5 cm = 0.005 m
  • λ is wavelength = 700 nm = 700 x 10⁻⁹ m

D = (0.45 x 0.005) / (0.61 x 700 x 10⁻⁹)

D = 5,269.32 m

Thus, the distance of the surface illuminated by the light of the given wavelength is 5,269.32 m.

The line that is drawn perpendicular to the point at which a wave intersects a boundary is know as the
fomenos
<span>The line that is drawn perpendicular to the point at which a wave intersects a boundary is know as the Normal .

When the normal is drawn, the incident ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence and the reflected ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence. These angles are always equal.
 
The refracted ray makes an angle with the normal known as angle of refraction. The sin of angle of incidence to the sin of angle of refraction is called the refractive index( </span>μ= <span>sin i / sin r) .

hope all of it helps you!</span>
