A parallel beam of light from a He-Ne laser, with a wavelength 633nm, falls on two very narrow slits 0.064mm apart. How far apart are the fringes in the center of the pattern on a screen 3.9m away?
In a modified Young's double slit experiment, a
monochromatic uniform and parallel beam of light of
wavelength 6000 A and intensity (10/) Wm2 is incident
normally on two apertures A and B of radii 0.001 m and
0.002 m respectively. A perfectly transparent film of thickness
2000 A and refractive index 1.5 for the wavelength of 6000A is
placed in front of aperture A (see figure). Calculate the power
(in W) received at the focal spot F of the lens. The lens is
symmetrically placed with respect to the apertures. Assume
that 10% of the power received by each aperture goes in the
original direction and is brought to the focal spot.
A single-slit experiment is set up. The screen is placed 2.00m from the slit. Light of
wavelength 500nm is incident on the slit. The separation between the 2nd minimum on one
side of the central maximum and the 2nd minimum on the other side is 18.0cm. What is the slit
width?

- Coherent light rays of wavelength strike a pair of slits separated by distance d at an angle 1, with respect to the normal to the plane containing the slits as shown in Figure P27.14. The rays leaving the slits make an angle 2 with respect to the normal, and an interference maximum is formed by those rays on a screen that is a great distance from the slits. Show that the angle 2 is given by 2=sin1(sin1md) where m is an integer.arrow_forwardA beam of 580-nm light passes through two closely spaced glass plates at close to normal incidence as shown in Figure P27.23.

- Sound waves with frequency 4000 Hz and speed 350 m/s diffract through the rectangular opening of a speaker cabinet and into a large auditorium of length 100 m. The opening, which has a horizontal width of 31.0 cm, faces a wall 100 m away. Along that wall, how far from the central axis will a listener be at the first diffraction minimum and thus have difficulty hearing the sound?arrow_forwardAlthough we have discussed single-slit diffraction only for a slit, a similar result holds when light bends around a straight, thin object, such as a strand of hair. In that case, a is the width of the strand. From actual lab measurements on a human hair, it was found that when a beam of light of wavelength 632.8nm was shone on a single strand of hair, and the diffracted light was viewed on a screen 1.25m away, the first dark fringes on either side of the central bright spot were 5.22cm apart.
