Chapter 25.3, Problem 1aTH

The photograph at right illustrates the pattern that appears on a distant screen when coherent red light is incident on a mask with two identical, very narrow slits. The two slits are separated by a distance d.

Chapter 25.3, Problem 1aTH, The photograph at right illustrates the pattern that appears on a distant screen when coherent red
Point C marks the center of the screen. Point X marks a point of zero intensity, and points Y and Z mark maxima.

a. In the space at right below the photograph, clearly label each of the lettered points according to Δ D , the difference in distances from the slits to the point. Express each value of Δ D in terms of λ.

Three slits, each separated from its neighbor by d = 0.06 mm, are illuminated by a coherent light source of wavelength 550 nm. The slits are extremely narrow. A screen is located L = 2.5 m from the slits. The intensity on the centerline is 0.05 W. Consider a location on the screen x = 1.72 cm from the centerline. a) Draw the phasors, according to the phasor model for the addition of harmonic waves, appropriate for this location. b) From the phasor diagram, calculate the intensity of light at this location.
