Two point sources (S1 and S2) emit light in phase with a wavelength of 600nm and the same amplitude.A detector P is shown on the x axis, which extends through the source S1. The phase difference between the light arriving at P from each of the two sources is recorded as P is shifted indefinitely to the right along the x axis from x=0.The result is displayed in the graph below, whose horizontal scale is not specified.What is the position of the penultimate intensity minimum detected by P?a)6,75µmb)40,5µmc)71,5µmd)1,05µme)21,5µm

hi, I am having some trouble with this physics homework. (a)Two narrow slits, s1 and s2 separated by 0.1 mm are illuminated by the light of wavelength 600 nm.

In the figure shown below white light in air shines on an oil film that floats on water. When looking straight down at the film, the reflected light is red, with a wavelength of 650 nm. What is the minimum possible thickness of the film? the incident light is white light Again, although the rays have not been drawn perpendicular to the interface, that is just for clarity. The rays actually are perpendicular. air n= 1.00 al oil = ? n = 1.50 b water n = 1.33
A perfectly flat piece of glass (n = 1.50) is placed over a perfectly flat piece of black plastic (n = 1.20) as shown in the figure a. They touch at A. Light of wavelength 600 nm is incident normally from above. The location of the dark fringes in the reflected light is shown on the sketch of figure b. (a) How thick is the space between the glass and the plastic at B? (b) Water (n = 1.33) seeps into the region between the glass and the plastic. How many dark fringes are seen when all the air has been displaced by water? (The straightness and equal spacing of the fringes is an accurate test of the flatness of the glass.)

A thin film of oil (n =1.50) with varying thickness floats on water (n = 1.33). When it is illuminated from above by white light, the reflected colors are as shown in the figure below. In air, the wavelength of yellow light is 580 nm. (a) What is the oil's thickness t at point B? [hint: this is the second thinnest region for yellow light]. Your solution must include a neat diagram.

A soap bubble shows strong colors due to interference of the light that reflects from the inner and outer boundaries of the thin soap and water film. Light striking the outer surface has a phase change on reflection of . That means that its phase is flipped when it goes from air to the water surface and back out. Light reflecting from the inner surface, where it is in water then comes to the boundary with air, does not change its phase. Suppose you see white light reflecting from a bubble as it increases its size. The film making the bubble gets thinner and thinner and the colors reflecting from it change. The bubble glows in colors that differ with the thickness of the soap film. As it gets even thinner, what will you see at the place in the film that will soon burst? In doubt, try an experiment with soapy water and make your own bubble. Look at the colors of a reflected white light when the bubble thins. Darkness. The light will destructively interfere and the…
