Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question.

The wavelength consists by light beam from 460nmto 640nm.

03

Determine the lowest order that is overlapped by another order.

(a)

The width can be calculated as,

d=WN

d=1160lines/mm

d=116010-3lines/m

d=6.2510-6m

Calculate the angle for the wavelength=460nmandm=2.

Substitute for 460nmfor , 2for m and 6.2510-6mand for dinto equation (ii).

=sin-124600-96.2510-6=sin-10.1472=8.46

Calculate the angle for the wavelength =640nmand m=2.

Substitute 640nmfor ,2for mand 6.2510-6mfor dinto equation (ii).

=sin-126400-96.2510-6=sin-10.2048=11.82

Calculate the angle for the wavelength=460nm and m=3.

Substitute 460nmfor ,3for mand6.2510-6mfor dinto equation (ii).

=sin-134600-96.2510-6=sin-10.2208=12.75

Calculate the angle for the wavelength=640nm and m=3.

Substitute640nmfor , 3for mand6.2510-6mfor dinto equation (ii).

=sin-136400-96.2510-6=sin-10.3072=17.89

Calculate the angle for the wavelength=460nmand m=4.

Substitute 460nmfor ,4for mand 6.2510-6mfor dinto equation (ii).

=sin-144600-96.2510-6=sin-10.2944=17.12

Calculate the angle for the wavelength=640nm and m=4.

Substitute 640nmfor , 4for mand 6.2510-6mfor dinto equation (ii).

=sin-146400-96.2510-6=sin-10.4096=24.17

Since from the above calculation, it can be seen that the value of the for =460nm,m=4 and =640nm,m=3 is nearly equals and overlaps. Therefore, the lowest order is m=3.

Hence the lowest order that is overlaps by the another is 3.

04

Calculate the highest order for which complete wavelength range of the beam is present.

(b)

To present the full spectral, the angle with the axis,=90

Substitute90for , 6.2510-6mfor dand 640nmforinto equation (i).

6.2510-6sin90=m64010-9m=6.2510-6sin9064010-9m=6.25103640m=9.76

Hence the highest order at which full spectral can be seen is9 .

05

Calculate the angle at the highest order for λ=460nm .

(c)

Calculate the value of angle,

Substitute 460nm for ,9for mand 6.2510-6m for dinto equation (ii).

=sin-1946010-96.2510-6=sin-10.6624=41.48

Hence the angle at the highest order for wavelength460nm is41.48 .

06

Calculate the angle at the highest order for λ=640nm.

(d)

Calculate the value of angle,

Substitute 640nmfor ,9formand 6.2510-6m for dinto equation (ii).

=sin-1964010-96.2510-6=sin-10.9216=67.16

Hence the angle at the highest order for wavelength640nm is 67.16.

07

Calculate the greatest angle at which the light at wavelength 460.0nm  appears.

(e)

Calculate the highest order for which full spectral can be seen.

Substitute 90for , 6.2510-6m for dand 460nmfor into equation (i).

6.2510-6sin90=m46010-9m=6.2510-6sin9046010-9m=6.25103460m=13.58

Calculate the value of angle,

Substitute 460nmfor , 13for mand 6.2510-6m
for dinto equation (ii).

=sin-11346010-96.2510-6=sin-10.9568=73.09

Hence the greatest angle which the light at wavelength 460nmappears is73.09 .

The lens diameter is 76 cm and its focal length is 14 m. Assume =550nm. (b) Find the distance between these barely resolved stars if each of them is 10 light-years distant from Earth. (c) For the image of a single star in this telescope, find the diameter of the first dark ring in the diffraction pattern, as measured on a photographic plate placed at the focal plane of the telescope lens. Assume that the structure of the image is associated entirely with diffraction at the lens aperture and not with lens 鈥渆rrors.鈥

A spy satellite orbiting at 160 km above Earth鈥檚 surface has a lens with a focal length of 3.6 m and can resolve objects on the ground as small as 30 cm. For example, it can easily measure the size of an aircraft鈥檚 air intake port. What is the effective diameter of the lens as determined by diffraction consideration alone? Assume =550nm.
