Distinguish between a converging lens and a diverging lens.

Physics
1 answer:
andriy [413]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:A converging lens is thickest in the middle and causes parallel light rays to converge through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens. A diverging lens is thinner in the middle and causes parallel light rays to diverge away from the focal point on the same side of the lens.

What Is Life?
kirill [66]

Answer:

Life is useless it has no meaning every one wil die and even if you don't die you can't change anything if you do change it won't have a cause. Animals are there to just survive and what do you do after you survive.it nothing life if just useless.

but because life is useless we can give meaning to life we can do what we like, help others get meaning for here life and altho life is useless we can live the useless life in fun

Monochromatic light is incident on a pair of slits that are separated by 0.220 mm. The screen is 2.60 m away from the slits. (As
Naddik [55]

Answer:

a

   \lambda = 1.667 nm

b

     \theta  =  0.8681^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The distance of separation is d  =  0.220 \ mm  =  0.00022 \ m

    The  is distance of the screen from the slit is  D   =  2.60 \ m

    The distance between the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright   y  =  1.97 cm  =  1.97 *10^{-2}\ m

Generally  the condition for constructive interference is  

      d sin \tha(\theta ) =  n \lambda

From the question we are told that small-angle approximation is valid here.

So    sin (\theta ) = \theta

=>        d \theta  =  n \lambda

=>        \theta =  \frac{n *  \lambda }{d }

Here n is the order of maxima and the value is  n =  1 because we are considering the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright fringes

Generally the distance between the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright  is mathematically represented as

         y  =  D * sin (\theta )

From the question we are told that small-angle approximation is valid here.

So

       y  =  D * \theta

=>   \theta  =  \frac{ y}{D}

So

     \frac{n *  \lambda }{d } = \frac{y}{D}

     \lambda =\frac{d * y }{n * D}

substituting values

       \lambda =  \frac{0.00022 * 1.97*10^{-2} }{1 * 2.60 }

        \lambda = 1.667 *10^{-6}

        \lambda = 1.667 nm

In the b part of the question we are considering the next set of bright fringe so  n=  2

    Hence

     dsin (\theta ) =  n \lambda

    \theta  =  sin^{-1}[\frac{ n  *  \lambda }{d} ]

    \theta  =  sin^{-1}[\frac{ 2  *  1667 *10^{-9}}{ 0.00022} ]

    \theta  =  0.8681^o
