In a version of Young's double-slit experiment, two narrow slits in a screen are illuminated by plane monochromatic light with a wavelength of 560 nm. The slits are separated by a distance of 0.2 mm. An observation screen is placed at a distance of 3 m from the slits. The interference pattern on the observation screen consists of a series of bright bands separated by dark fringes. Calculate the separation between the second order and third order bright bands (second order and third order intensity maxima) on the observation screen.
In a Young’s Double Slit Experiment the distance between two slits is 0.150 mm and the length from the double slit to the screen is 120 cm. The distance from central fringe to the nth fringe is 2 cm. The wavelength of the light is 750 nm. What is the path difference for the rays from the two slits arriving at a point on the screen, say point P?
Light waves with two different wavelengths, 642 nm and 474 nm, pass simultaneously through a single slit whose width is 9.68×10-5 m and strike a screen 2.00 m from the slit. Two diffraction patterns are formed on the screen. What is the distance (in cm) between the common center of the diffraction patterns and the first occurrence of the spot where a dark fringe from one pattern falls on top of a dark fringe from the other pattern?
In a double-slit interference experiment, the wavelength is å = 692 nm, the slit separation is d = 0.150 mm, and the screen is D = 31.0 cm away from the slits. What is the linear distance Ax between the eighth order maximum and the third order maximum on the screen? Ax = mm
When coherent electromagnetic waves with wavelength λ = 120 µm are incident on a single slit of width a, the width of the central maximum on a tall screen 1.50 m from the slit is 90.0 cm. For the same slit and screen, for what wavelength of the incident waves is the width of the central maximum 180.0 cm, double the value when λ = 120 µm?
In a Young's double-slit experiment, the seventh dark fringe is located 0.033 m to the side of the central bright fringe on a flat screen, which is 1.1 m away from the slits. The separation between the slits is 1.5 x 104 m. What is the wavelength of the light being used? Seventh dark fringe Number i Double slit Units 0 Central bright fringe Seventh dark fringe Screen
White light is used to illuminate the two slits in a Young's double slit experiment. The separation between the slits is b and the screen is at a distance d (>> b) from the slits. At a point on the screen directly in front of one of the slits, certain wavelengths are missing. Some of these missing wavelengths are (a) λ = b²/d (b) λ = 2b²/d (d) λ = 2b²/3d (c) λ = b²/3d 2
Light of wavelength λ = 410 nm is incident upon two thin slits that are separated by a distance d = 25 μm. The light hits a screen L = 2.4 m from the screen. It is observed that at a point y = 4.8 mm from the central maximum the intensity of the light is I = 85 W/m2. Part (a) Write an equation for the phase shift between the light from the two slits at the observation point in terms of the given variables. Part (b) For the given data, what is the phase shift, in radians, between the light from the two slits at the observation point? Part (c) What is the intensity of the light at the two slits (I0) in watts per square meter?
A single slit forms a diffraction pattern, with the first minimum at an angle of 30.0° from central maximum, when monochromatic light of 630-nm wavelength is used. The same slit, illuminated by a new monochromatic light source, produces a diffraction pattern with the third minimum at a 60.0° angle from the central maximum. What is the wavelength of this new light?
In a double-slit experiment, monochromatic light of wavelength 506. nm is incident on identical parallel slits of width 0.410 mm and separated by a distance of 0.550 mm. The interference pattern is observed on a screen 2.26 m from the slits. The intensity at the center of the central maximum is 7.36 mW/m². What is the intensity (in mW/m²) at a point on the screen that is 0.810 mm from the center of the central maximum? i mW/m²
A tunable laser illuminates a double slit that has slit separation equal to slit width (i.e., d=a). Initially the laser is tuned to a wavelength of 633 nm, that produces a first order maximum (m=1) at 4.1 mm from the central maximum on a viewing screen that is 1.3 m from the double slits. Later, one of the slits is blocked and the laser is re-tuned to a wavelength of 450 nm. At what distance, L, is the viewing screen located to produce a single slit first order minimum (p=1) at 4.1 mm from the central maximum?
