Monochromatic red light with a wavelength of 660nm is incident on a pair of narrow slits that are separated by a distance of 4.00×10^4
*m. A viewing screen is placed a distance of 120cm behind the
slits to observe the intensity pattern of the light after passing through the slits.
a) Relative to the center of the pattern, where is the center of the third bright fringe?
The path difference of a Michelson interferometer is 3.40 x 10-6 m. What is the largest wavelength of visible light (380 nm to 750 nm) that will produce a bright fringe?
A physics professor wants to perform a lecture demonstration of Young's double-slit experiment for her class using the 633-nm light from a He-Ne laser. Because the lecture hall is very large, the interference pattern will be projected on a wall that is 6 m from the slits. For easy viewing by all students in the class, the professor wants the distance between the m=0 and m=1 maxima to be 50 cm. What slit separation is required in order to produce the desired interference pattern?
