In a Young's double-slit experiment, two parallel slits with a slit separation of 0.185 mm are illuminated by light of wavelength 563 nm, and the interference pattern is observed on a screen located 4.05 m from the slits. (a) What is the difference in path lengths from each of the slits to the location of the center of a fifth-order bright fringe on the screen? µm(b) What is the difference in path lengths from the two slits to the location of the center of the fifth dark fringe away from the center of the pattern? µm
In a double slit experiment, the slits are separated by a distance of 0.46 mm, and the screen is 1.5 m from the slits. Light of wavelength 455.0 nm is incident on the slits.Compute the(a) angle for the second-order bright fringe?(b) vertical distance for the fifth-order bright fringe from the central maximum?
In a Young’s double-slit experiment, two parallel slits with a slit separation of 0.100 mm are illuminated by light of wavelength 589 nm, and the interference pattern is observed on a screen located 4.00 m from the slits. (a) What is the difference in path lengths from each of the slits to the location ofthe center of a third-order bright fringe on the screen? (b) What is the difference in path lengths from the two slits to the location of the center of the third dark fringe away from the center of the pattern?
