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
If parallel light falls on a single slit of width D at a28.0° angle to the normal, describe the diffraction pattern
A laser of a known wavelength is shone through a single slit, resulting in an interference pattern on a wall.
1. Determine all the measurements that you would need to make, and how you would put them together to calculate the gap width of the slit.

- Waves and Optics What is the phase difference when a green laser (700nm) travels in 7 meters?arrow_forwardThis question is regarding the experiment ’Diffraction and Interference of Light’. a) In a diffraction experiment for a given slit and a given slit-screen distance,would the distance between the dark fringes increase or decrease when a blue laser is replaced with a red laser? Use equations to argue why, in no more than two sentences (Hint: wavelength λblue = 470nm, λred = 700 b) Draw the pattern you observe for two slit interference.

Assume the pupil has a diameter of 4 mm for night vision and use an average wavelength for visible light of 550 nmarrow_forwardThe reflected light is different from the direct path light because of its interaction with the surface. A wave meeting a surface and then developed again leaving it changes its phase by one half a cycle on reflection. Since phase is measured as an angle from 0 to 360 degrees or from 00 to 2π2π radians, we describe this by saying that the phase changes 180 degrees or ππ radians upon reflection. Apart from that effect, this experiment is exactly equivalent to Young's double slit. 2. If the two beams have paths that differ by exactly one wavelength λλ in Young's double slit, do they add constructively to make a bright interference region, or destructively to make a dark one?arrow_forward
