Coherent monochromatic light falls perpendicularly on two slits (each of width 0.10 mm) separated by 0.50 mm. In the resulting interference pattern on a screen 2.80 m away, adjacent bright fringes are separated by 2.80 mm. (a)What is the wavelength of the light that falls on the slits

Sagot :

Answer:

The correct answer is "[tex]0.5\times 10^{-6} \ m[/tex]".

Explanation:

Given:

[tex]\frac{\lambda D}{d} =2.8\times 10^{-3}[/tex]

[tex]d = 0.5\times 10^{-3}[/tex]

[tex]D = 2.80[/tex]

Now,

The wavelength will be:

⇒ [tex]\lambda = 2.8\times 10^{-3}\times \frac{d}{D}[/tex]

By putting the values, we get

⇒    [tex]=\frac{2.8\times 10^{-3}\times 0.5\times 10^{-3}}{2.8}[/tex]

⇒    [tex]=\frac{1.4\times 10^{-6}}{2.8}[/tex]

⇒    [tex]=0.5\times 10^{-6} \ m[/tex]
