Answer:
Yes, it will produce a diffraction pattern.
a. 3.9 mm b. 1.95 mm
Explanation:
The light shined from a single slit will produce a diffraction pattern because, the wavefront act as wavelets which generates its own wave according to Huygens principle. This therefore causes the diffraction pattern.
Given
wavelength of green light, λ = 520 nm = 520 × 10⁻⁹ m = 5.20 × 10⁻⁷ m
width of slit, d = 0.440 mm = 0.44 × 10⁻³ m = 4.4 × 10⁻⁴ m
Distance of slit from central maximum , D = 1.65 m
Distance of first minimum from central maximum, y = ?
a. The relationship between the slit width and wavelength is given by [tex} dsinθ = mλ [/tex]where d = slit width, θ = angular distance from central maximum, λ = wavelength of light and m = ±1, ±2, ±3...
The relationship between y and D is given by
Since θ is small, sinθ ≈ θ ≈ tanθ
so, dθ = mλ ⇒ θ = mλ/d = y/D
Therefore, y = mλD/d
Now, for the first minimum above the slit, m = +1 and for the first minimum below the slit, m = -1. So, y₁ = λD/d and y₋₁ = -λD/d. So, the width of the central maximum Δy is the difference between the first minima below and above the central maximum. So, Δy = y₁ - y₋₁ = λD/d -(-λD/d) = 2λD/d
Substituting the values from above, Δy= 2 × 5.20 × 10⁻⁷ × 1.65/4.4 × 10⁻⁴ = 3900 × 10⁻⁶ m = 3.9 × 10⁻³ m = 3.9 mm
b. The first order fringe is the fringe located between the first minimum and the second minimum. From dsinθ = mλ and tanθ = y/D when θ is small, sinθ ≈ θ ≈ tanθ. So, y = mλD/d. Let m= 1 and m=2 be the first and second minima respectively. So,y₁ = λD/d and y₂ = 2λD/d. The difference Δy₁ = y₂ - y₁ is the width of the first order fringe. Therefore, Δy₁ = 2λD/d - λD/d= λD/d. Substituting the values from above, we have
λD/d= 5.20 × 10⁻⁷ × 1.65/4.4 × 10⁻⁴= 1.95 × 10⁻³ m = 1.95 mm
To begin with, we can use the formula that links frequency, wavelength and velocity.
Because you already have the wavelength and the frequency, you just need to solve for velocity. You can do this by multiplying each side of the equation by frequency.
Therefore, 400 x 2.5 = 1000m/s.
Hope this helps :)
