Chapter 38, Problem 6

(choose chapter or problem)

Assume Figure 38.1 was photographed with red light of a single wavelength l0. The light passed through a single slit of width a and traveled distance L to the screen where the photograph was made. Consider the width of the central bright fringe, measured between the centers of the dark fringes on both sides of it. Rank from largest to smallest the widths of the central fringe in the following situations and note any cases of equality. (a) The experiment is performed as photographed. (b) The experiment is performed with light whose frequency is increased by 50%. (c)The experiment is performed with light whose wavelength is increased by 50%. (d) The experiment is performed with the original light and with a slit of width 2a. (e) The experiment is performed with the original light and slit and with distance 2L to the screen.
