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°.

What of the following is the mathematical form of boyles law?
viva [34]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

V=1/p

By means of cross multiplication so by that we will have pv=1 which also implies p1v1=p2v2 coz boyles law states that the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to pressure provided that the temperature in kelvin remains constant

scoray [572]

Answer: 704

Explanation:Vi = 0 m/s

vf = 65 m/s

a = 3 m/s2

d = ??

vf2 = vi2 + 2*a*d

(65 m/s)2 = (0 m/s)2 + 2*(3 m/s2)*d

4225 m2/s2 = (0 m/s)2 + (6 m/s2)*d

(4225 m 2/m2)/(6 m/s2) = d

d = 704 m
