Chapter 33: Q. 19 (page 955)

You need to use your cell phone, which broadcasts an 800MHzsignal, but you're behind two massive, radio-wave absorbing buildings that have only a15mspace between them. What is the angular width, in degrees, of the electromagnetic wave after it emerges from between the buildings?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Angular width of electromagnetic radiation is2.86掳.

Step by step solution

01

Formula for angular width 

The width of the angular fringe is that the distance seen between centre fringe and therefore the slit. It also demonstrates how far the fringes are angularly.

Angular width is,

胃=2位a

位is wavelength.

ais length of the slit.

02

Calculation of angular width

Angular width of electromagnetic wave:

胃=2位a

So,

胃=2c补谓

=2脳3脳10815脳8脳108

=0.05rad

=2.86掳

White light400-700nmincident on a 600line/mmdiffraction grating produces rainbows of diffracted light. What is the width of the first-order rainbow on a screen 2.0mbehind the grating?

Light of wavelength 600nmpasses though two slits separated by 0.20mmand is observed on a screen 1.0mbehind the slits. The location of the central maximum is marked on the screen and labeled y=0.

a. At what distance, on either side of y=0, are the m=1bright fringes?

b. A very thin piece of glass is then placed in one slit. Because light travels slower in glass than in air, the wave passing through the glass is delayed by 5.0脳10-16sin comparison to the wave going through the other slit. What fraction of the period of the light wave is this delay?

c. With the glass in place, what is the phase difference 螖蠒0between the two waves as they leave the slits?2

d. The glass causes the interference fringe pattern on the screen to shift sideways. Which way does the central maximum move (toward or away from the slit with the glass) and by how far?

A radar for tracking aircraft broadcasts a 12GHzmicrowave beam from a 2.0鈭�m-diameter circular radar antenna. From a wave perspective, the antenna is a circular aperture through which the microwaves diffract.

a. What is the diameter of the radar beam at a distance of 30km?

b. If the antenna emits 100kWof power, what is the average microwave intensity at 30km?

A 600 line/mm diffraction grating is in an empty aquarium tank. The index of refraction of the glass walls is nglass=1.50. A helium-neon laser (位=633nm)is outside the aquarium. The laser beam passes through the glass wall and illuminates the diffraction grating.

a. What is the first-order diffraction angle of the laser beam?

b. What is the first-order diffraction angle of the laser beam after the aquarium is filled with water nwater=1.33?

On a screen behind such a diffracting grating, narrow, bright fringes can be seen. After that, the entire research is submerged in water. Do the screen's fringes get closer together, farther apart, stay the same, or simply disappear? Explain
