Because dark line spectra result from passing white light through ionized gasses and plasmas, which is what the atmosphere of stars are made of. These frequencies are scattered by the star's atmosphere as it leaves the surface (photosphere) of the star, and don't make it to earth.
b is the answer i hope this helped...
Answer:
a. (a) grating A has more lines/mm; (b) the first maximum less than 1 meter away from the center
Explanation:
Let n₁ and n₂ be no of lines per unit length of grating A and B respectively.
λ₁ and λ₂ be wave lengths of green and red respectively , D be distance of screen and d₁ and d₂ be distance between two slits of grating A and B ,
Distance of first maxima for green light
= λ₁ D/ d₁
Distance of first maxima for red light
= λ₂ D/ d₂
Given that
λ₁ D/ d₁ = λ₂ D/ d₂
λ₁ / d₁ = λ₂ / d₂
λ₁ / λ₂ = d₁ / d₂
But
λ₁ < λ₂
d₁ < d₂
Therefore no of lines per unit length of grating A will be more because
no of lines per unit length ∝ 1 / d
If grating B is illuminated with green light first maxima will be at distance
λ₁ D/ d₂
As λ₁ < λ₂
λ₁ D/ d₂ < λ₂ D/ d₂
λ₁ D/ d₂ < 1 m
In this case position of first maxima will be less than 1 meter.
Option a is correct .
Answer:
Geometrical optics, or ray optics, describes the propagation of light in terms of "rays" which travel in straight lines, and whose paths are governed by the laws of reflection and refraction at interfaces between different media.
