1)A red low-power laser with λ = 634nm was beamed
at a double-slit grating. An interference pattern
appeared on a screen 2.50 m from the grating. The
distance from central spot to the next bright spot
was 22.5cm.
What is the spacing between the slits in the grating?
2. The red laser (in Q1) is replaced by a blue laser
with a shorter wavelength. All else is the same.
Show mathematically whether the interference
pattern it produces will place the bright spots closer
or further apart.
3.
Given that the blue laser in Q2 has a wavelength of
445 nm, calculate the “spot-spacing” for the same
slit grating and screen distance as in Q1.
4.
A green laser beam produces spots which are
0.334m apart (central to m=1) when a grating is used
with slits 3,000 nm apart and a screen 1.90m away.
What is the wavelength of the laser light?

A single-slit is illuminated by violet light of wavelength 405 nm. The width of the slit is 1.25 mm. The slit-to-screen distance is 4.50 m. Calculate the distance between the third diffraction minima (m3) and the first diffraction minima (m = 1) on the same side of the central diffraction maximum.arrow_forward8. Coherent light of wavelength 501.5 nm is sent through two GP parallel slits in an opaque material. Each slit is 0.700 um wide. Their centers are 2.80 um apart. The light then falls on a semicylindrical screen, with its axis at the midline between the slits. We would like to describe the appearance of the pattern of light visible on the screen. (a) Find the direction for each two-slit interference maximum on the screen as an angle away from the bisector of the line joining the slits. (b) How many angles are there that represent two-slit inter- ference maxima? (c) Find the direction for each single-slit interference minimum on the screen as an angle away from the bisector of the line joining the slits. (d) How many angles are there that represent single-slit interference minima? (e) How many of the angles in part (d) are identical to those in part (a)?

- A diffraction grating is 3 cm long and has 3000 slits. White light shines through it and creates fringes on a screen 0.7 m away. The first fringe of the color pewter appears 3.4 cm from the central white fringe.

Youtake the laser into your physics laboratory to perform a double-slitexperiment. The distance from the barrier to the screen is 2.50 m andthe two slits are 0.350 mm apart from each other. You measure thedistance from the central maximum to the 2nd order maximum andfind that it is 9.04 mm. What is the wavelength of your laser pointer’slight?arrow_forward7-arrow_forward
