Answer» `beta_(1) = (lambda_(1) D)/(d) = (6000 xx 10^(-10) xx 1)/(10^(-3)) = 0.6 mm` `beta_(2) = (lambda 2 D )/(d) = 0.45 mm` Let `n_(1) ^(th)` maxima of `lambda_(1)` and `n_(2) ^(th)` maxima of `lambda_(2)` coincide at a position y. Then, `y = n_(1) P_(1) = n_(2) P_(2) = LCM` of `beta_(1)` and `beta_(2)` `implies y = LCM` of `0.6 mm` and `0.45mm` or `y = 1.8 mm` At this point,`3^("rd")` maxima for `6000 Å` and `4^("th")` maxima for `4500 Å` coincide. |

A screen is placed 50cm from a single slit, which is illuminated with 6000Å light. If distance between the first and third minima in the diffraction pattern is 3.0 mm, what is the width of the slit?A. `0.1mm`B. `0.2mm`C. `0.4mm`D. `0.8mm` |
Answer» Correct Answer - B Position of first minima on a single slit diffraction pattern is given by `d sin theta = n lambda` For small value of `theta, sin theta ~~ theta = (y)/(D)` `:. (y.a)/(D) = n lambda or y= (n lambda D)/(a)` `:.` Distance between third order minima and first order minima will bew `Delta y = y_(3)-y_(1) = ((3-1)(lambda D))/(a) = (2lambda D)/(a)` |

A double slit of separation 1.5 mm is illuminated by white light (between 4000 and 8000 `Å`). On a screen 120 cm away colored interference pattern is formed. If a pinhole is made on this screen at a distance of 3.0 mm from the central white fringe, some wavelengths will be absent in the transimitted light. Find the second longest wavelength (in `Å`) which will be absent in the transmitted light. |
Answer» Correct Answer - 5769 `Å` In a double-slit interference pattern, the distance x of a dark fringe from the central achormatic fringe is `x = (D)/(2d) (2n + 1 ) (lambda)/(2) , n = 0, 1, 2,…` `lambda = (75000)/(2n+ 1) Å` (where `n = 0, 1, 2,…)` Thus, in the range 4000 - 8000 `Å`, the absent wavelength are 6818, 5769, 5800, 4421. |
