- Two closely spaced wavelengths of light are incident on a diffraction grating. (a) Starting with Equation 37.7, show that the angular dispersion of the grating is given by dd=mdcos (b) A square grating 2.00 cm on each side containing 8 000 equally spaced slits is used to analyze the spectrum of mercury.

Each slit is 0.700 m wide. Their centers are 2.80 m apart. The light then falls on a semicylindrical screen, with its axis at the midline between the slits.

The line of sight of the photograph is perpendicular to like plane in which the light moves. Find (a) the speed, (b) the frequency, and (c) the wavelength of the light in the Lucite. Suggestion: Use a protractor.arrow_forwardThe Very Large Array (VLA) is a set of 27 radio telescope dishes in Catron and Socorro counties, New Mexico (Fig. P37.37). The antennas can be moved apart on railroad tracks, and their combined signals give the resolving power of a synthetic aperture 36.0 km in diameter. (a) If the detectors are tuned to a frequency of 1.40 GHz, what is the angular resolution of the VLA? (b) Clouds of interstellar hydrogen radiate at the frequency used in part (a). What must be the separation distance of two clouds at the center of the galaxy, 26 000 light-years away, if they are to be resolved? (c) What If?

- A pinhole camera has a small circular aperture of diameter D. Light from distant objects passes through the aperture into an otherwise dark box, falling on a screen at the other end of I lie box. The aperture in a pinhole camera has diameter D = 0.600 mm. Two point sources of light of wavelength 550 mil are at a distance L from the hole. The separation between the sources is 2.80 cm, and they are just resolved by the camera. What is I?arrow_forwardMany cells are transparent anti colorless. Structures of great interest in biology and medicine can be practically invisible to ordinary microscopy. To indicate the size and shape of cell structures, an interference micro-scope reveals a difference in index of refraction as a shift in interference fringes. The idea is exemplified in the following problem. An air wedge is formed between two glass plates in contact along one edge and slightly separated at the opposite edge as in Figure P37.37. When the plates are illuminated with monochromatic light from above, the reflected light has 85 dark fringes. Calculate the number of dark fringes that appear if water (n = 1.33) replaces the air between the plates.arrow_forwardWhat If? Suppose light strikes a single slit of width a at an angle from the perpendicular direction as shown in Figure P37.6. Show that Equation 37.1, the condition for destructive interference, must be modified to read sindark=masinm=1,2,3,arrow_forward

(b) At what angle will the fourth line of the Balmer series appear in first order? (c) At what angle will the second-order maximum be for the first line?arrow_forwardOne leg of a Michelson interferometer contains an evacuated cylinder of length L, having glass plates on each end. A gas is slowly leaked into the cylinder until a pressure of 1 atm is reached. If N bright fringes pass on the screen during this process when light of wavelength A is used, what is the index of refraction of the gas? Hint: The fringe shifts occur because the wavelength of the light changes inside the gas-filled tube.arrow_forward
