Coherent light of frequency 6.32 * 1014 Hz passes through two thin slits and falls on a screen 85.0 cm away. You observe that the third bright fringe occurs at {3.11 cm on either side of the central bright fringe. (a) How far apart are the two slits

Respuesta :

The two slits are at a distance of 40.11 μm. The distance is found by the relation,mλ=dsinθ.

What is the two-slit diffraction of light.?

Diffraction occurs when waves, such as light or sound, spread out when they pass through a slit or around an object.

The formula of the wavelength is;

[tex]\rm \lambda= \frac{c}{v} \\\\ \lambda=\frac{3 \times 10^8 }{6.37 \times 10^{14}} \\\\ \lambda= 471 \ nm[/tex]

The distance between the two slits is calculated by the relation;

[tex]\rm m \times \lambda= d sin \theta \\\\ d= \frac{m \times \lambda}{sin \theta} \\\\ d= \frac{3 \times 471 \times 10^{-9} \times 88.0 \times 10^{-2}}{3.10 \times 10^{-2}} \\\\ d=40.11 \times 10^{-6} \ m \\\\ d=40.11 \mu m[/tex]

Hence,the two slits are at a distance of 40.11 μm.
