uble slit is (3 cm) and the wavelength of the microwaves (2.5 cm), find the angles of
the first and second maximums?
b) In the experiment of Fabry-Perrot interferometer of microwaves, if the first distance
between the two partial reflector was (di= 20.7 cm) and we moved the second partial
reflector so the new distance between the partial reflectors is (d 40.2 cm) and we
counted (13) minima's through this distance. Calculate the wavelength of the
microwaves.

(b) Find the wavelength of light that has its first minimum at 62.0°.arrow_forwardA single slit is illuminated by light consisting of two wavelengths. One wavelength is 540.0 nm. If the first minimum of one color is located at the second minimum of the other color, what are the possible wavelengths of the other color? Is the light visible?arrow_forwardA Two slits are separated by distance d and each has width w. If d = 2w, how many bright fringes are within the central maximum of the diffraction pattern?arrow_forward
- White light is incident on a diffraction grating that has 2.85 103 rulings per centimeter, producing first-order maxima at 6.55, 8.75, and 11.2. a. What are the wavelengths responsible for these three first-order maxima? b. At which angles do these wavelengths produce second-order maxima?arrow_forward(a) Assume that the maxima are halfway between the minima of a single-slit diffraction pattern. The use the diameter and circumference of the phasor diagram, as described in Intensity in Single-Slit Diffraction, to determine the intensities of the third and fourth maxima in terms of the intensity of the central maximum. (b) Do the same calculation, using Equation 4.4. I=I0( sin)2 (4.4)arrow_forward(a) Find the maximum number of lines per centimeter a diffraction grating can have and produce a maximum for the smallest wavelength of visible light. (b) Would such a grating be useful for ultraviolet spectra? (c) For infrared spectra?arrow_forward
- Estimate the diffraction-limited resolution of the radio telescope in Arecibo, Puerto Rico. The radio telescopes diameter is 305 m, and it operates at a frequency of 300.0 MHz.arrow_forwardA student shines a red laser pointer with a wavelength of 675 nm through a double-slit apparatus in which the two slits are separated by 75.0 m. He observes the diffraction pattern on the wall 1.50 m away. What is the distance between the central bright fringe and either of the neighboring bright fringes on the wall?arrow_forward(a) The dwarf planet Pluto and its moon, Charon, are separated by 19,600 km. Neglecting atmospheric effects, should the 5.08-m-diameter Palomar Mountain telescope be able to resolve these bodies when they are 4.50109 km from Earth? Assume an average wavelength of 550 nm. (b) In actuality, it is just barely possible to discern that Pluto and Charon are separate bodies using a ground-based telescope. What are the reasons for this?arrow_forward
- Another way to construct a double-slit experiment is to use a Lloyds mirror (Fig. P35.78). Light from the single slit strikes the screen and interferes with the light that has reflected from the mirror. Explain why at the center of the fringes there is a dark fringe instead of a bright fringe.arrow_forwardA One of the slits in a Youngs double-slit apparatus is wider than the other, so that the amplitude of the light that reaches the central point of the screen from one slit alone is twice that from the other slit alone. Determine the resultant intensity as a function of the direction on the screen, the wavelength of the incident light, the incident intensity I0, and the slit separation d.arrow_forward(a) Show that a 30,000 line per centimeter grating will not produce a maximum for visible light. (b) What is the longest wavelength for which it does produce a first-order maximum? (c) What is the greatest number of line per centimeter a diffraction grating can have and produce a complete second-order spectrum for visible light?arrow_forward
