Compare the situation in part II (in which a periodic water wave was incident on two identical, narrow slits) to the experiment described above.
Which points along line X-X’ in the ripple tank best corresponds to:
• points of minimum intensity (e.g., points F and G)? Explain.
• points of maximum intensity (e,g., points A-E)? Explain.
For a points of minimum intensity (e.g., points F and G), identify the quantity or quantities that are adding to zero at that point. Explain your reasoning.

- Recall that the 2D Fourier transform essentially maps an image into a collection of patterns. Consider the following k-space coordinates and sketch the pattern they represent. a. k, = kŷ b. kz = 2k (0.5 & + 9) c. kz =2 V3 Take the constant k to represent a pattern with a periodicity of that of the lines on a piece of notebook paper, and scale each of them appropriately.arrow_forwardA red laser from the physics lab is marked as producing 632.8-nm light. When light from this laser falls on two closely spaced slits, an interference pattern formed on a wall several meters away has bright red fringes spaced 5.00 mm apart near the center of the pattern. When the laser is replaced by a small laser pointer, the fringes are 5.18 mm apart. Part A What is the wavelength of light produced by the pointer?

- Green light shines through a 100-μm-diameter hole and is observed on a screen. If the hole diameter is increased by 20%, does the circular spot of light on the screen decrease in diameter, increase in diameter, or stay the same? Explain. Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right. The wavelets do not interfere in this case The diameter of the central maximum is inversely proportional to the diameter of the hole The diameter of the central maximum is proportional to the diameter of the hole Submit The hole is too large to observe the diffraction increases decreases does not change Request Answer diameter. and so the diameter of the spot of light on the screen Reset with the hole's Helparrow_forwardIn a double-slit diffraction experiment, monochromatic light of wavelength 680nm is sent through slits of width D = 0.02 mm with spacing d = 0.06 mm, and a viewing screen is placed at L = 1 m. a)Calculate angle from the central maximum to the first 2 interference minima.
