उत्तर

Difference between Interference and Diffraction
Interference occurs due to superposition of two distinct waves coming from two coherent sources of light. The diffraction occurs as a result of the secondary wavelets coming from different parts of the same wavefront.

In the pattern of the interference, all the bright fringes have same intensity. In a diffraction pattern, all the bright fringes are not of the same intensity.

Show that the fringe pattern on the screen is actually a superposition of slit diffraction from each slit.


The fringes produced in diffraction pattern are of _______.

(A) equal width with same intensity

(B) unequal width with varying intensity

(C) equal intensity\

(D) equal width with varying intensity


A Young's double slit experiment is performed with white light.

(a) The central fringe will be white.

(b) There will not be a completely dark fringe.

(c) The fringe next to the central will be red.

(d) The fringe next to the central will be violet.


A thin paper of thickness 0.02 mm having a refractive index 1.45 is pasted across one of the slits in a Young's double slit experiment. The paper transmits 4/9 of the light energy falling on it. (a) Find the ratio of the maximum intensity to the minimum intensity in the fringe pattern. (b) How many fringes will cross through the centre if an identical paper piece is pasted on the other slit also? The wavelength of the light used is 600 nm.


A parallel beam of monochromatic light is used in a Young's double slit experiment. The slits are separated by a distance d and the screen is placed parallel to the plane of the slits. Slow that if the incident beam makes an angle \[\theta =  \sin^{- 1}   \left( \frac{\lambda}{2d} \right)\] with the normal to the plane of the slits, there will be a dark fringe at the centre P0 of the pattern.


When a beam of light is used to determine the position of an object, the maximum accuracy is achieved, if the light is ______.


The force required to double the length of a steel wire of area 1 cm2, if its Young's modulus Y= 2 × 1011/m2 is: 


In Young's double slit experiment, the minimum amplitude is obtained when the phase difference of super-imposing waves is: (where n = 1, 2, 3, ...)


  • Assertion (A): In Young's double slit experiment all fringes are of equal width.
  • Reason (R): The fringe width depends upon the wavelength of light (λ) used, the distance of the screen from the plane of slits (D) and slits separation (d).

In Young's double slit experiment, show that:

`β = (λ"D")/"d"`

Where the terms have their usual meaning.
