Answer to Problem 14P
Following figure shows the first bright fringe formation.
Explanation of Solution
Following figure shows the first bright fringe formation.
Here,
Conclusion:
Following figure shows the first bright fringe formation.
(b)
Answer to Problem 14P
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
The distance between the central maxima and the first bright fringe is
The screen separation is
Explanation:
Formula to calculate the tangent of the angle associated with the first order bright fringe is,
Substitute
Conclusion:
The tangent of the angle associated with the first order bright fringe is
(c)
Answer to Problem 14P
Explanation of Solution
Formula to calculate the angle associated with the first order bright fringe is,
Substitute
Formula to calculate the sine of the angle associated with the first order bright fringe is,
Substitute
The sine and the tangent of the angle are nearly same since the angle is very small. For larger angle the sine and tangent will not be comparable.
Conclusion:
The angle associated with the first fringe is
(d)
Answer to Problem 14P
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
The slit separation is
The order of first bright fringe is
Explanation:
Formula to calculate the wavelength is,
Here,
Substitute
Conclusion:
The wavelength of the light is
(e)
Answer to Problem 14P

- 13.87 ... Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets?
