MCQ
Fraunhofer lines of the solar system is an example of
  • A
    Emission spectrum
  • B
    Emission band spectrum
  • C
    Continuous emission spectrum
  • Line absorption spectrum

Answer

Correct option: D.
Line absorption spectrum
d
(d)Fraunhofer lines are produced by the absorption of rays of the Sun in the atmosphere. When white light from photosphere passes through chromosphere, the vapours and gases present in it absorbs certain wavelengths and produces dark lines (Fraunhofer lines).

Assertion : In Young's double slit experiment the two slits are at distance $d$ apart. Interference pattern is observed on a screen at distance $D$ from the slits. At a point onthe screen when it is directly opposite to one of the slits, a dark fringe is observed. Then, the wavelength of wave is proportional to square of distance of two slits

Reason : For a dark fringe intensity is zero.
