For your science fair project you need to design a diffraction grating that will disperse the visible spectrum 400-700nmover30.0 in first order.
a How many lines per millimeter does your grating need?
bWhat is the first-order diffraction angle of light from a sodium lamp =589nm?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part a

aThe lines per mm needed for grating isn=1231.

Part b

bThe angle of light from sodium lamp is1=46.5.

Step by step solution

01

Step: 1 Equating equation: (part a)

In diffraction grating,has

dsin1=

The small angle at each wavelength as

localid="1649135282502" dsin()=400nmdsin+30=700nmsin()sin+30=47sin()=47sin+30

02

Step: 2 Finding angle: (part a)

By trignomentry,

sin(a+b)=sinacosb+cosasinb74sin=sincos30+cossin3074sin=32sin+cos27432sin=cos20.884sin=cos2sincos=tan=120.884=tan1120.884=29.5.

03

Step: 3 Calculating numbers: (part a)

Calculating distance and numbers by

d=400nmsin29.5d=812.3nmd=812.3106mm.n=1812.3106mmn=1231.

04

Step: 4 Angle of light in sodium lamp: (part b) 

The angle of fringe for any wavelength

It shows the light intensity on a viewing screen behind a circular aperture. What happens to the width of the central maximum if the

a. The wavelength of the light is increased.

b. The diameter of the aperture is increased.

c. How will the screen appear if the aperture diameter is less than the light wavelength?

A Michelson interferometer operating at a 600nmwavelength has a 2.00-cm-long glass cell in one arm. To begin, the air is pumped out of the cell and mirror M2is adjusted to produce a bright spot at the center of the interference pattern. Then a valve is opened and air is slowly admitted into the cell. The index of refraction of air at 1.00atmpressure is 1.00028. How many brightdark-bright fringe shifts are observed as the cell fills with air?

Light from a helium-neon laser (=633nm)passes through a circular aperture and is observed on a screen 4.0mbehind the aperture. The width of the central maximum is2.5cm. What is the diameter (in mm) of the hole?

FIGURE shows light of wavelength incident at angle on a reflection grating of spacing d. We want to find the angles um at which constructive interference occurs.

a. The figure shows paths 1and 2along which two waves travel and interfere. Find an expression for the path-length difference r=r2r1.33

b. Using your result from part a, find an equation (analogous to Equation localid="1650299740348" (33.15)for the angles localid="1650299747450" mat which diffraction occurs when the light is incident at angle localid="1650299754268" . Notice that m can be a negative integer in your expression, indicating that path localid="1650299766020" 2is shorter than path localid="1650299773517" 1.

c. Show that the zeroth-order diffraction is simply a 鈥渞eflection.鈥 That is, localid="1650299781268" 0=

d. Light of wavelength 500 nm is incident at localid="1650299787850" =40on a reflection grating having localid="1650299794954" 700reflection lines/mm. Find all angles localid="1650299802944" mat which light is diffracted. Negative values of localid="1650299812949" m
are interpreted as an angle left of the vertical.

e. Draw a picture showing a single localid="1650299823499" 500nmlight ray incident at localid="1650299833529" =40and showing all the diffracted waves at the correct angles.

You've found an unlabeled diffraction grating. Before you can use it, you need to know how many lines per it has. To find out, you illuminate the grating with light of several different wavelengths and then measure the distance between the two first-order bright fringes on a viewing screen 150cmbehind the grating. Your data are as follows:


Use the best-fit line of an appropriate graph to determine the number of lines per mm.
