Question
"Monochromatic light should be used to produce pure spectrum". Comment on this statement.
✓

Answer

No, monochromatic light cannot be used to produce a pure spectrum. A spectrum is produced when a light of different wavelengths is deviated through different angles and gets separated. Monochromatic light, on the other hand, has a single wavelength.

A small town with a demand of 800kW of electric power at 220V is situated 15km away from an electric plant generating power at 440V. The resistance of the two wire line carrying power is 0.5Ω per km. The town gets power from the line through a 4000-220V step-down transformer at a sub-station in the town.
  1. Estimate the line power loss in the form of heat.
  2. How much power must the plant supply, assuming there is negligible power loss due to leakage?
  3. Characterise the step up transformer at the plant.

Two transparent slabs having equal thickness but different refractive indices $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ are pasted side by side to form a composite slab. This slab is placed just after the double slit in a Young's experiment so that the light from one slit goes through one material and the light from the other slit goes through the other material. What should be the minimum thickness of the slab so that there is a minimum at the point P0 which is equidistant from the slits?
