Figure 36-45 gives the parameter of Eq. 36-20 versus the sine of the angle in a two-slit interference experiment using light of wavelength 435 nm. The vertical axis scale is set by s=80.0rad. What are (a) the slit separation, (b) the total number of interference maxima (count them on both sides of the pattern鈥檚 center), (c) the smallest angle for a maxima, and (d) the greatest angle for a minimum? Assume that none of the interference maxima are completely eliminated by a diffraction minimum.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The slit separation is 11.1m.

(b) The total number of interference maxima is 50
.

(c) The smallest angle for maxima is 0.

(d) The greatest angle for minima is78.44.

Step by step solution

01

Concept/Significance of diffraction

The expression for the slit width of the diffraction grating is given by,

=dsind=(sin)() 鈥︹ (1)

Here, d is slit separation,is slit width,is wavelength, andis angle of diffraction.

02

(a) Find the slit separation

From the graph, the ratio of slit with to sine of angle is,

sin=80rad1=80rad

Substitute80radfor sin, and43510-9mfor in equation (1).

d=80rad43510-9m=11.110-6m=11.1m

Therefore, the slit separation is11.1m.

03

(b) Find the total number of interference maxima

The condition for the constructive interference maxima is given by,

dsinmax=mmaxmmax=dsinmax 鈥︹ (2)

Here,maxis the maximum angle, andmmaxis the number of maxima.

Substitute 11.110-6mford,90for max, and43510-9mforin equation (2).

mmax=11.110-6msin9043510-9m=25.5225

The number of interference maxima are 25 and the central maxima is formed at 0 . So, the number of interference minima are 25 .

The total number of interference maxima and minima on both sides of the interference pattern is,

n=25+25=50

Therefore, the total number of interference maxima on both sides of the interference pattern is 50.

04

(c) Find the smallest angle for a maxima

The least maxima is occurred at the center if the interference pattern.

mmax=0

From equation (1),

max=sin-1mmaxd=sin-10d=0

Therefore, the smallest angle for maxima is0 .

05

(d) Find the greatest angle for a minimum

The number of minima is 25. So, the smallest minima is occurred at 1 and the greatest minima is occurred at 25 .

mmin=25

The condition for interference minima is given by,

dsinmin=mminmin=sin-1mmind 鈥︹ (3)

Substitute11.110-6m ford ,25 formmin , and43510-9m for in equation (3).

min=sin-12543510-9m11.110-6m=78.44

Therefore, the greatest angle for minima is78.44 .

An old English cookbook carries this recipe for cream of nettle soup: 鈥淏oil stock of the following amount: 1 breakfastcup plus 1 teacup plus 6 tablespoons plus 1 dessertspoon. Using gloves, separate nettle tops until you have 0.5 quart; add the tops to the boiling stock. Add 1 tablespoon of cooked rice and 1 saltspoon of salt. Simmer for 15 min.鈥 The following table gives some of the conversions among old (premetric) British measures and among common (still premetric) U.S. measures. (These measures just scream for metrication.) For liquid measures, 1 British teaspoon = 1 U.S. teaspoon. For dry measures, 1 British teaspoon = 2 U.S. teaspoons and 1 British quart =1 U.S. quart. In U.S. measures, how much (a) stock, (b) nettle tops, (c) rice, and (d) salt are required in the recipe?
