(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A definition for coherent radiation needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction :

A definition is used to describe the meaning of a term and this term can be a word, phrase, or other sets of symbols. There are two types of definitions and they are intentional definitions, which try to give the sense of a term and extensional definitions, which proceed by listing the objects that a term describes.

Answer to Problem 6.1QAP

Coherent radiation can be defined as the phases of two or more waves representing the radiation differ by a known constant.

Explanation of Solution

Coherent radiation can be defined as the period in which two or more waves representing radiation change with a known constant. Simultaneously, a consistent relationship between the phase of waves in a single frequency radiation beam. When the phase difference between the waves is constant, two beams of light coincide.

Answer to Problem 6.1QAP

The net response caused by two or more stimuli is the sum of the responses that would have been caused by each stimulus individually.

Explanation of Solution

The superposition principle can be defined as the net response caused by two or more stimuli and is the sum of the responses that each stimulus can produce individually. This superposition principle is known as the superposition theorem and the superposition property. This can be matched with all linear systems.

Answer to Problem 6.1QAP

The refractive index is a ratio of the speed of light in a medium relative to its speed in a vacuum.

Explanation of Solution

The refractive index is a ratio of the speed of light in a medium relative to its speed in a vacuum. This change in speed from one medium to another is what causes light rays to bend. The refractive index of any other medium is defined relative to the refractive index of a vacuum and it is equal to 1.

Answer to Problem 6.1QAP

Anomalous dispersion is the dispersion of light in some refraction spectra in which the normal order of the separation of components is reversed in the vicinity of certain wavelengths.

Explanation of Solution

Anomalous dispersion is the dispersion of light in some refraction spectra in which the normal order of the separation of components is reversed in the vicinity of certain wavelengths. In the anomalous dispersion refractive, the index is decreased when frequency is increased.

Answer to Problem 6.1QAP

The ground state of an atomic nucleus, atom, or molecule is its lowest energy state.

Explanation of Solution

The lowest energy state of an atomic nucleus, atom, or molecule can be defined as its ground state. Higher energy states are known as excited states. The ground state applies to any quantized property of a particle. The ground state of atoms and molecules are important, as are their excited states.

The work function of a substance is defined as the minimum energy required to remove an electron from its surface.

Explanation of Solution

Electrons can absorb energy from external sources, such as lasers, arc-discharge lamps, and tungsten-halogen bulbs, and be promoted to higher energy levels.

Answer to Problem 6.1QAP

Fluorescence is the emission of light by a substance that has absorbed light or other electromagnetic radiation.

Explanation of Solution

Fluorescence is the process in which the emission of light by a substance absorbs light or other electromagnetic radiation. It is a form of luminescence. Usually, the emitted light has a longer wavelength, and therefore, lower energy than the absorbed radiation.

Explanation of Solution

It is the emission of light by a substance after it absorbs energy from a form of electromagnetic radiation, such as visible light or X-rays. Unlike fluorescence, phosphorescence continues for a short while after the source of radiation is removed.
