Your friend has been given a laser for her birthday. Unfortunately, she did not receive a manual with it and so she doesn't know the wavelength that it emits. You help her by performing a double-slit experiment, with slits separated by 0.36 mm. You find that the two m=1 bright fringes are 5.5 mm apart on a screen 1.6 mm from the slits.
What is the wavelength the laser emits?
An interference experiment is performed with monochromatic (one color) laser light. The separation between the slits is 0.600 mm, and the screen is located 7.44 m from the slits. The first bright fringe is located 4.64 mm from the center of the interference pattern. What is the wavelength of the laser light (in nm)?
Diffraction can be used to provide a quick test of the size of red blood cells. Blood is smeared onto a slide, and a laser shines through the slide. The size of the cells is very consistent, so the multiple diffraction patterns overlap and produce an overall pattern that is similar to what a single cell would produce. Ideally, the diameter of a red blood cell should be between 7.5 and 8.0 μm. If a 633 nm laser shines through a slide and produces a pattern on a screen 24.0 cm distant, what range of sizes of the central maximum should be expected? Values outside this range might indicate a health concern and warrant further study.
