A double-slit arrangement produces interference fringes for sodium light (λ = 589 nm) that are 0.48° apart. What is the angular

fringe separation if the entire arrangement is immersed in a liquid that has index of refraction n = 1.25?

Answer:

0.38°

Explanation:

\theta = Angle

m = Number

d = Distance

n = Refractive index of liquid = 1.25

a denotes air

l denotes liquid

In the case of double split interferance we have the relation

m\lambda=dsin\theta

For air

m\lambda_a=dsin\theta_a

For liquid

m\lambda_l=dsin\theta_l

Dividing the two equations

\frac{m\lambda_a}{m\lambda_l}=\frac{dsin\theta_a}{dsin\theta_l}\\\Rightarrow \frac{\lambda_a}{\lambda_l}=\frac{sin\theta_a}{sin\theta_l}

Wavelength ratio = n

n=\frac{sin\theta_a}{sin\theta_l}\\\Rightarrow \frac{sin0.48}{1.25}=sin\theta_l\\\Rightarrow \theta_l=sin^{-1}\frac{sin0.48}{1.25}\\\Rightarrow \theta_l=0.38^{\circ}

The angular separation is 0.38°

Answer:

0.384°

Explanation:

λ = 589 nm

θ = 0.48°

n = 1.25

When the arrangemnet is immeresed in the liquid, then the wavelength of light is chnaged.

let the new wavelength is λ'

λ' = λ/n  589 / 1.25 = 471.2 nm

λo, the new fringe separation  is θ'

So. θ' / θ = λ' / λ

θ' / 0.48 = 471.2 / 589

θ' = 0.384°

Thus, the new fringe separation is 0.384°.

The coefficient of linear expansion of ordinary glass is three times that of Pyrex glass. An ordinary glass rod and a Pyrex glas
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

b. 3 times

Explanation:

Lets take

Coefficient for ordinary glass = α₁

Coefficient for pyrex glass = α₂

 Given that α₁ = 3 α₂

Initial length of both glasses are equal = L

Change in the temperature is also same .= ΔT

We know that change in the length  given as

ΔL =  L α ΔT

Therefore

\dfrac{\Delta L_1}{\Delta L_2}=\dfrac{L\alpha_1\Delta T}{L\alpha_2\Delta T}

\dfrac{\Delta L_1}{\Delta L_2}=\dfrac{3\alpha_2}{\alpha_2}

ΔL₁ = 3ΔL₂

Therefore change in the length of original glass is three time of pyrex glass.

b. 3 times

Starburst galaxies:
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

are often associated with a galaxy that is colliding with another galaxy.

Explanation:

A starburst galaxy is a galaxy that undergoes very fast formation of stars. The rate at which stars are born is 100 times more than 3 solar masses per year of the Milky Way. The starburst is stage of the formation of a galaxy. After this stage is complete the stars will have used almost all the gas in it. As the star formation rate is very fast the difference between the age of the stars and the galaxy itself is very less. The star formation is triggered by mergers and tidal interactions between gas-rich galaxies.
