If this resolving power is diffraction limited, to what effective diameter of your eye’s optical system does this correspond? Use Rayleigh’s criterion and assume λ = 550 nm.

- Ultraviolet light of wavelength 350 nm is incident on a diffraction grating with slit spacing d and forms an interference pattern on a screen a distance L away. The angular positions bright of the interference maxima are large. The locations of the bright fringes are marked on the screen. Now red light of wavelength 700 nm is used with a diffraction grating to form another diffraction pattern on the screen. Will the bright fringes of this pattern be located at the marks on the screen if (a) the screen is moved to a distance 2L from the grating, (b) the screen is moved to a distance L/2 from the grating, (c) the grating is replaced with one of slit spacing 2d, (d) the grating is replaced with one of slit spacing d/2, or (e) nothing is changed?arrow_forwardWhite light is passed through a diffraction grating with slit spacing of 0.04 mm causing the light to split up into a rainbow on the screen. m = 1 m = 0 If the color you are interested in appears at a diffraction angle of 0 = 0.6 degrees what is the the wavelength of that color in nanometers?arrow_forwardWhat conditions are necessary for two light waves to form an interference pattern of bright lines and dark areas?arrow_forward
