A diffraction grating is 2.80 cm wide and contains 2700 lines, When used with light of a certain wavelength, a third-order maximum is formed at an angle of 24.0°. What is the wavelength (in nm)? Number i 1.36 Units nm

In a thermally stabilized lab, a Michelson interferometer is used to monitor the temperature to ensure it stays constant. The movable mirror is mounted on the end of a 1.00-m-long aluminum rod, held fixed at the other end. The light source is a He Ne laser, =632.8 nm . The resolution of this apparatus corresponds to the temperature difference when a change of just one fringe is observed. What is this temperature difference?

A beam of 580-nm light passes through two closely spaced glass plates at close to normal incidence as shown in Figure P27.23. For what minimum nonzero value of the plate separation d is the transmitted light bright?

A horizontal laser beam of wavelength 632.8 nm has a circular cross section 2.00 nun in diameter. A rectangular aperture is to lie placed in the center of the beam so that when the light falls perpendicularly on a wall 4.50 m away, the central maximum fills a rectangle 110 mm wide and 6.00 mm high. The dimensions are measured between the minima bracketing the central maximum. Find the required (a) width and (b) height of the aperture. (c) Is the longer dimension of the central bright patch in the diffraction pattern horizontal or vertical? (d) Is the longer dimension of the aperture horizontal or vertical? (e) Explain the relationship between these two rectangles, using a diagram.

On a certain crystal, a first-order X-ray diffraction maximum is observed at an angle of 27.1° relative to its surface, using an X-ray source of unknown wavelength. Additionally, when illuminated with a different known wavelength of 0.137 nm, a second-order maximum is detected at 37.3°. Determine a. the spacing between the reflecting planes.  b. the unknown wavelength.

A parallel X-ray beam is diffracted by sodium chloride. Strong first-order is obtained when the Bragg angle (the angle between the crystal planes and the emerging beam) is 6º 50’.  The distance between the planes that are in the reflection position in the crystal is  2,8 Å. 1 angstron = 1 Å = 0,1 nm. a) What is the wavelength of X-rays?
