Using a 685 nm wavelength laser, you form the diffraction pattern of a 1.11 mm wide slit on a screen. You measure on the screen

Answer:

13.8 m

Explanation:

Dark fringes are formed in a single slit experiment due to destructive interference that occurs due to interference.

The position of these dark fringes formed on a screen is given by:

y = \frac{\lambda }{d} (m + 1/2)D

where y = position of  mth minimum

m = order of the minimum

D = distance of the slit from the screen

d = width of the slit

λ = wavelength of the light used

We need to find D:

D = \frac{yd} {\lambda (m + 1/2)} \\

From the question:

m = 11

y = 9.85 cm = 0.0985 m

λ  = 6.83 * 10^{-7} m

d = 1.11 mm = 0.0011 m

Therefore:

D = \frac{0.0985 *0.0011} {6.83 * 10^{-7} *(11 + 1/2)} \\\\D = \frac{0.00010835} {6.83 * 10^{-7}  * (23/2)} \\\\D = 13.8 m

The slit is 13.8 m far from the screen

P.E = mgh where

m = mass in kilograms

g = acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8m/s^2

h = height in meters

P.E = 10 x 9.8 x 5

P.E = 490 J
