Two coherent plane light waves of equal amplitude makes a small angle $\alpha (<<1)$ with each other. They fall almost normally on a screen. If $\gamma $ is the wavelength of light waves, the fringe width $\Delta x$ of interference patterns of the two sets of wave on the screen is
What is the amplitude of resultant wave, when two waves $y _1=A _1\sin (\omega t-B _1)$ and $y _2=A _2\sin (\omega t-B _2)$ superimpose ?
An isotropic point source emits light. A screen is situated at a given distance. If the distance between sources and screen is decreased by $2\%$, illuminance will increase by:
The path difference between two wavefronts emitted by coherent sources of wavelength 5460 $\overset{o}{A}$ is 2.1 micron. The phase difference between the wavefronts at that point is
Two light rays having the same wavelength $\lambda$ in vacuum are in phase initially. Then the first ray travels a path ${L} _{1}$ through a medium of refractive index ${n} _{1}$ while the second ray travels a path of length ${L} _{2}$ through a medium of refractive index ${n} _{2}$. The two waves are then combined to produce interference. The phase difference between the two waves is:
Electrons accelerated from rest by an electrostatic potential are collimated and sent through a Young's double slit setup. The figure width is w. If the accelerating potential is doubled then the width is now close to.
To demonstrate the phenomenon of interference we require two sources which emit radiation of
Which of the following is not an essential condition for interference?
If two sources have a randomly varying phase difference $\varphi ( t )$ the resultant intensity will be given by
In a biprism experiment, the distance of 20 th bright bandfrom the center of the interference pattern is 8$\mathrm { mm }$ . The distance of 30th bright band from the center is
