The key aspect of two-slit interference is the dependence of the total intensity at point O on the angle θ. Find this intensity I(θ). The formula for intensity is I=(ϵ0c(amplitudeofE)2)/2 Express your answer in terms of Imax, θ, d, and λ, where Imax=2ϵ0cE(r)2. Note: cos2x should be coded as cos(x)^2. In order to make the math as simple as possible, we will define two phases:

Monochromatic light of wavelength 530 nm passes through a horizontal single slit of width 1.5 m in an opaque plate. A screen of dimensions 2.0m2.0m is 1.2 m away from the slit. (a) Which way is the diffraction pattern spread out on the screen? (b) What are the angles of the minima with respect to the center? (c) What are the angles of the maxima? (d) How wide is the central bright fringe on the screen? (e) How wide is the next bright fringe on the screen?
In an interference experiment using a monochromatic source emitting light of wavelength å, the fringes are produced by two long, narrow slits separated by a distance d. The fringes are formed on a screen which is situated at a distance D >> d. Write down an expression for the fringe width w. Please use Il * II for products (e.g. B*A), "/" for ratios (e.g. B/A) and the usual "+" and "-" signs as appropriate. Use "lambda" (without the quotes) for å in the equation box.

What are the (b) smallest a and (c) associated m, the (d) second smallest a and (e) associated m, and the (f) third smallest a and (g) associated m? (Note: To find values of a satisfying this conditiion, plot the curve y = tan a and the straight line y = a and then find their intersections, or use a calculator to find an appropriate value of a by trial and error. Next, from a = (m+1/2)x, determine the values of m associated with the maxima in the single-slit pattern. These m values are not integers because secondary maxima do not lle exactly halfway between minima.)

The analysis of any two-point source interference pattern and a successful determination of wavelength demands an ability to sort through the measured information and equating the values with the symbols in Young's equation. Apply your understanding by interpreting the following statements and identifying the values of y, d, m and L. Finally, perform some conversions of the given information such that all information share the same unit. An interference pattern is produced when light is incident upon two slits that are 50.0 micrometers apart. The perpendicular distance from the midpoint between the slits to the screen is 7.65 m. The distance between the two third-order antinodes on opposite sides of the pattern is 32.9 cm. y= ________ d=________ m=_______ L=________

There are hand-held spectrometers which will separate the colors of light into a "rainbow" using a diffraction grating. Using a single-slit arrangement will provide a MUCH less precise separation - but let's explore what that would do. The width of our single slit will be0.1 mm. (a) What is the angular width (in degrees) of the central maximum of red light (λ=700 nm) ?
Consider the interference pattern produced by two parallel slits of width a and separation d, in which d = 3a. The slits are illuminated by normally incident light of wavelength λ. (a) First we ignore diffraction effects due to the slit width. At what angles θ from the central maximum will the next four maxima in the two-slit interference pattern occur? Your answer will be in terms of d and λ. (b) Now we include the effects of diffraction. If the intensity at θ = 0° is I0, what is the intensity at each of the angles in part (a)? (c) Which double-slit interference maxima are missing in the pattern?
