प्रश्न
Two monochromatic rays of light are incident normally on the face AB of an isosceles right-angled prism ABC. The refractive indices of the glass prism for the two rays '1' and '2' are respectively 1.3 and 1.5. Trace the path of these rays after entering the prism.

उत्तर
Critical angle of ray 1:
`sin(c_1)=1/mu_1=1/1.3`
`=>c_1=sin^(-1)(1/1.3)=50.35^@`
Similarly, critical angle of ray 2:
`sin(c_2)=1/mu_0=1/1.52`
`=>c_2=sin^(-1)(1/1.52)=41.14^@`
Both the rays will fall on the side AC with angle of incidence (i) equal to 45°. Critical angle of ray 1 is greater than that of i. Hence, it will emerge from the prism as shown in the figure. Critical angle of ray 2 is less than that of i. Hence, it will be internally reflected as shown in the figure

State Huygen’s principle. Using this principle explain how a diffraction pattern is obtained on a screen due to a narrow slit on which a narrow beam coming from a `=> n = (vlamda)/(vlamda_omega)`monochromatic source of light is incident normally.
The following figure shows three equidistant slits being illuminated by a monochromatic parallel beam of light.

(c) In Young's double-slit experiment, the slits are separated by 0⋅5 mm and the screen is placed 1⋅0 m away from the slit. It is found that the 5th bright fringe is at a distance of 4⋅13 mm from the 2nd dark fringe. Find the wavelength of light used.
Using the monochromatic light of the wavelength in the experimental set-up of the diffraction pattern as well as in the interference pattern where the slit separation is 1 mm, 10 interference fringes are found to be within the central maximum of the diffraction pattern. Determine the width of the single slit, if the screen is kept at the same distance from the slit in the two cases.
