Explain the construction of plane wavefront using Huygens’ principle.
You have learnt in the text how Huygens’ principle leads to the laws of reflection and refraction. Use the same principle to deduce directly that a point object placed in front of a plane mirror produces a virtual image whose distance from the mirror is equal to the object distance from the mirror.
State Huygens’s principle. Show, with the help of a suitable diagram, how this principle is used to obtain the diffraction pattern by a single slit.
Draw a plot of intensity distribution and explain clearly why the secondary maxima becomes weaker with increasing order (n) of the secondary maxima.
According to Huygens principle, ______.
What is the geometrical shape of the wavefront for:
- Light diverging from a point source?
- The pattern of wavefront of the light from a distant star intercepted by earth?
The inverse square law of intensity is valid for a
Figure shows a standard two slit arrangement with slits S1, S2, P1, P2 are the two minima points on either side of P (Figure). At P2 on the screen, there is a hole and behind P2 is a second 2-slit arrangement with slits S3, S4 and a second screen behind them.
What type of wavefronts are associated with a source infinity?
Using Huygen’s wave theory of light, show that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Draw a neat and labelled diagram.
Represent diagrammatically how the incident planar wavefronts of wavelength λ pass through an aperture of size d, when d is approximately equal to λ.
