Electromagnetic wave of unknown wavelength passes through the slit of width a =3.79 µm and
the first minimum is detected at angular position 0 =6.82°.
What is the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave?
Provide your answer in nanometers, round it to one decimal place.
11) A 0.5 mW He-Ne laser beam with wavelength = 632.8 nm is initially
traveling in a vacuum system and is incident on a smooth diamond surface with
index of refraction, n = 2.42 for diamond. The laser beam diameter is 1.0 mm.
What is the frequency of the He-Ne laser beam while in vacuum?
Explain or Show Work Here:
According to the principles of quantum mechanics, every particle acts like a wave. To demonstrate this, a helium nucleus is shown to exhibit interference as it passes through a double-slit. The helium nucleus has a mass of 6.64 x 10^-27 kg and its speed is 500.0 m/s when is passes through the slits.
a. What is the wavelength of the wave associated with the helium nucleus in nanometers?
b. If the slits are seperated by 1.00 nm and the distance from the slits to the detector (effectively, the "screen") is 15.0 cm, what is the distance, in centimeters, from the central maximum to the first-order maximum of constructive interference?
c. If the uncertainty in the velocity of the helium nucleus is 18 m/s, what is the uncertainty in its position, assuming a simultaneous measurement?
