In Young's experiment a mixture of orange light (611 nm) and blue light (471 nm) shines on the double slit. The centers of the f

irst-order bright blue fringes lie at the outer edges of a screen that is located 0.497 m away from the slits. However, the first-order bright orange fringes fall off the screen. By how much and in what direction (toward or away from the slits) should the screen be moved, so that the centers of the first-order bright orange fringes just appear on the screen

Answer:

0.5639m

Explanation:

For a young double slit experiment the expression below gives the angular separation for m dark fringe having slit width d and wavelength λ

=sin⁻¹(mλ/d)

mλ /d =y/L

for the first order,

y= mλL/d

For ratio separation y₀/yD=1 and d= 1

y₀/yD= [mλ ₀L₀/d]/[mλD.LD./d]

1=λ ₀L₀/λD.LD.

λD.LD= λ ₀L₀

L₀= λD.LD/ λ ₀..............(1)

Then substitute the given values into (1) we have

L₀=471 *0.497/611

= 0.3831m

Distance by which the screen has to be moved towards the slit is

LD- Lo

0.947-0.3831= 0.5639m

What does frequency describe?
ddd [48]

The whole definition of frequency is:  <em>How often something happens.  </em>

Especially referring to something that happens over and over and over and over.

One example is Choice-C: How often the particles of a medium vibrate.

"Frequency" comes from the word "frequent".  That means "often", and "frequency" just means "often-ness" ... HOW often the thing happens.

Some other examples:

Frequency of jump-roping . . . maybe 60 per minute .

Frequency of rain . . . maybe 5 per month .

Frequency of an AM radio station . . . maybe 1 million waves per second.

(If it's something <u><em>per second</em></u>, then we call it "Hertz".  That's not for the car rental company.  It's for Heinrich Hertz, the German Physicist who was the first one to prove that electromagnetic waves exist.  He sent radio waves all the way ACROSS HIS LABORATORY and detected them at the other side ( ! ), in 1887.)

Frequency of the wiggles in the sound wave coming out of a trumpet playing the note ' A ' . . . 440 Hertz.

Frequency of sunrise and the Chicago Tribune newspaper . . . 1 per day

Frequency of the cycle of Moon phases and an average human woman's ovulation cycle: 1 per 29.531 days, 1 per ~28 days .

How does the value of the electrostatic force vary with the distance between them?
MariettaO [177]
The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value.
