  1. Q36.1 Light of wavelength λpasses through a single slit of width a. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen that is very far from from the slit. Which of the following will give the greatest increase in the angular width of the central diffraction maximum? A. Double the slit width a and double the wavelength λ. B. Double the slit width a and halve the wavelength λ. C. Halve the slit width a and double the wavelength λ. D. Halve the slit width a and halve the wavelength λ.

  2. A36.1 Light of wavelength l passes through a single slit of width a. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen that is very far from from the slit. Which of the following will give the greatest increase in the angular width of the central diffraction maximum? A. Double the slit width a and double the wavelength l. B. Double the slit width a and halve the wavelength l. C. Halve the slit width a and double the wavelength l. D. Halve the slit width a and halve the wavelength l.

  3. Q36.2 In a single-slit diffraction experiment with waves of wavelength λ, there will be no intensity minima (that is, no dark fringes) if the slit width is small enough. What is the maximum slit width a for which this occurs? A. a = λ/2 B. a = λ C. a = 2λ D. The answer depends on the distance from the slit to the screen on which the diffraction pattern is viewed.

  4. A36.2 In a single-slit diffraction experiment with waves of wavelength λ, there will be no intensity minima (that is, no dark fringes) if the slit width is small enough. What is the maximum slit width a for which this occurs? A. a = λ/2 B. a = λ C. a = 2λ D. The answer depends on the distance from the slit to the screen on which the diffraction pattern is viewed. Must have absolute value <1

  5. Interference pattern of several slits • The figure below shows the interference pattern for 2, 8, and 16 equally spaced narrow slits. • By making the slits very close together, the maxima become more separated. If the light falling on the slits contains more than one wavelength (color), there will be more than one pattern, separated more or less according to wavelength, although all colors have a maximum at m = 0.

  6. Q36.3 In Young’s experiment, coherent light passing through two slits separated by a distance d produces a pattern of dark and bright areas on a distant screen. If instead you use 10 slits, each the same distance d from its neighbor, how does the pattern change? A. The bright areas move farther apart. B. The bright areas move closer together. C. The spacing between bright areas remains the same, but the bright areas become narrower. D. The spacing between bright areas remains the same, but the bright areas become broader.
