If the measured angular separation between the second minimum to the left of the central maximum and the third minimum to the right of the central maximum is $30^{\circ}$ in a single slit diffraction pattern recorded using $628 \ nm$ light,then the width of the slit is . . . . . . $\mu m$.

$A$ screen is placed at a distance $50\,cm$ from a single slit,which is illuminated with light of wavelength $690\,nm$. If the distance between the first and third minima is $3.00\,mm$,what is the width of the slit (in $,mm$)?

$A$ slit of width $a$ is illuminated by red light of wavelength $6500 \, \mathring{A}$. The first minimum will fall at $\theta = 30^{\circ}$ if $a$ is equal to:

View Solution

In a single slit diffraction experiment, a parallel beam of green light of wavelength $\lambda = 550 \,nm$ passes through a slit of width $a = 0.20 \,mm$. The transmitted light is collected on a screen at a distance $D = 100 \,cm$ away. The distance of the first-order minima from the central maximum is $x \times 10^{-5} \,m$. The value of $x$ is:

Ray optics fails when

The box of a pinhole camera,of length $L$,has a hole of radius $a$. It is assumed that when the hole is illuminated by a parallel beam of light of wavelength $\lambda$,the spread of the spot (obtained on the opposite wall of the camera) is the sum of its geometrical spread and the spread due to diffraction. The spot would then have its minimum size (say $b_{min}$) when
