Question

What was the result of shining the flashlight through the diffraction grating compared to the laser? Explain this difference.

Answer 1

The result of shining the flashlight through the diffraction grating compared to 'the laser' would be more or less of a rainbow effect as the different colors mix in different quantities with distance.

Answer 2

Answer:

The flashlight gives off all the colors of a rainbow of colors while the laser only gives of one color.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the result of shining the flashlight through the diffraction grating compared to the laser is that the flashlight gives off all the colors/ a rainbow of colors while the laser only gives of one color. This is based on the fact that a flashlight provides a white light since when all the colors of the visible spectrum combine, a white light is yielded. However, laser light covers a larger range than the visible spectrum, say anything between 150nm up to 11000nm but is based just in the transmission of only one color.

Best regards.
