- What is the maximum number of lines per centimeter a diffraction grating can have and produce a complete firstorder spectrum for visible light?arrow_forwardA grating with 4000 lines per centimeter is used to diffract light that contains all wavelengths between 400 and 650 nm. How wide is the first-order spectrum on a screen 3.0 m from the grating?arrow_forwardWhy is it much more difficult to see interference fringes for light reflected from a thick piece of glass than from a thin film? Would it be easier if monochromatic light were used?arrow_forward
- A beam of monochromatic green light is diffracted by a slit of width 0.550 mm. The diffraction pattern forms on a wall 2.06 m beyond the slit. The distance between the positions of zero intensity on both sides of the central bright fringe is 4.10 mm. Calculate the wavelength of the light.arrow_forwardA monochromatic light of unknown wavelength is incident on a slit of width 20 m. A diffraction pattern is seen at a screen 2.5 m away where the central maximum is spread over a distance of 10.0 cm. Find the wavelength.arrow_forwardThe interference pattern of a He-Ne laser light (=632.9nm) passing through two slits 0.031 mm apart is projected on a screen 10.0 m away. Determine the distance between the adjacent bright fringes.arrow_forward
- An electric current through hydrogen gas produces several distinct wavelengths of visible light. What are the wavelengths of the hydrogen spectrum, if they form first-order maxima at angles 24.2°, 25.7°, 29.1°, and 41.0° when projected on a diffraction grating having 10,000 lines per centimeter?arrow_forwardFind the largest wavelength of light falling on double slits separated by 1.20 m for which there is a first-order maximum. Is this in the visible part of the spectrum?arrow_forwardMonochromatic light is incident on a pair of slits that are separated by 0.200 mm. The screen is 2.50 m away from the slits. a. If the distance between the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright fringes is 1.67 cm, find the wavelength of the incident light. b. At what angle does the next set of bright fringes appear?arrow_forward
- If a hologram is recorded using monochromatic light at one wavelength but its image is viewed at another wavelength, say 10% shorter, what will you see? What if it is viewed using light of exactly half the original wavelength?arrow_forwardCrystal lattices can be examined with X-rays but not UV. Why?arrow_forwardA certain grade of crude oil has an index of refraction of 1.25. A ship accidentally spills 1.00 m3 of this oil into the ocean, and the oil spreads into a thin, uniform slick. 11 the Him produces a first-order maximum of light of wavelength 500 mm normally incident on it, how much surface area of the ocean does the oil slick cover? Assume the index of refraction of the ocean water is 1.34.arrow_forward
