Concept explainers

Interference of Light

The word "constructive" signifies addition in interference. Constructive interference occurs when the path of the waves that start from the slit differs by 1 entire wavelength or in the intervals of the same. Hence, the waves that are presented on the screen are in phase (crest to crest/trough to trough). The waves interfering constructively forms bright fringes on the screen.

What is the shape of the fringe on the screen when light diffracting from circular apertures? Write diffraction types?
Consider shining light of a single frequency through two slits. The light makes an interference pattern of light and dark fringes on a screen behind the slits. If we now repeat the experiment under water, with the same frequency light, what will be different? Be as specific as you can be. (The entire apparatus is under water: light, slits, and screen.)
Determine the equation for single slit as bright fringes appear on the screen?
A laser illuminates two slits, leading to the interference pattern shown below. After the right-hand slit is covered up, what will the pattern look like?
Light of a wavelength of 620nm is incident upon a screen that has two slits cut into it. On the far side of the slits you observe the first order fringes located at an angle of 0.45o from the central fringe when the light hits a screen. What is the separation of the slits? (Give your answer in x10-6m to 1 decimal place.)
Two slits spaced 0.450mm apart are placed 75.0cm from a screen. What is the distance between the second and third dark lines of the interference pattern on the screen when the slits are illuminated with coherent light with wavelength of 500nm? Use a diagram to support your answer
The red laser (in Q1) is replaced by a blue laserwith a shorter wavelength. All else is the same.Show mathematically whether the interferencepattern it produces will place the bright spots closeror further apart
The diffraction pattern below arises from a single slit. If we would like to sharpen the pattern (i.e., make the central bright spot narrower), what should we do to the slit width? a) widen the slit b) enlarge the screen c) close off the slit d) None of the other responses are correct.
Sketch and explain the pattern that would have been on the screen of a single-slit setup if light were only to behave as particles. Attached is an image that shows how waves and particles would differ on passing through a slit. Please see this as a reference.
A student has set up an experiment using 2 slits. Laser light is incident on the slits and forms an interference pattern on a screen some distance away. If the width of the two slits is decreased, how will the interference pattern change on the screen? Refer to the Diffraction Lab for evidence for your CER. Write in a paragraph form
Does it INCREASE, DECREASE or REMAIN THE SAME?As the slits move farther from each other, the distance between the bandsAs the screen is moved closer to the slits, the distance between the bands
