MCQ
Red light of wavelength $5400$ $\mathring {A}$ from a distant source falls on a slit $0.80\, mm$ wide. Calculate the distance between first two dark bands on each side of central bright band in the diffraction pattern observed on a screen place $1.4\, m$ from the slit. (in $mm$)
  • $1.89$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $3$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1.89$
a
Here wavelength $(\lambda)=5400 \dot{A}=5.4 \times 10^{-7} m , a=0.80 mm =8 \times 10^{-4} m , D=1.4 m$

$\therefore$ Distance between first two dark bands on each side of central maximum is the width of central maximum

$=2 x=\frac{2 \lambda D}{d}$

$=\frac{2 \times 5.4 \times 10^{-7} \times 1.4}{8 \times 10^{-4}}$

$=1.89 \times 10^{-3} m =1.89 mm$

Phase space diagrams are useful tools in analyzing all kinds of dynamical problems. They are especially useful in studying the changes in motion as initial position and momentum are changed. Here we consider some simple dynamical systems in one-dimension. For such systems, phase space is a plane in which position is plotted along horizontal axis and momentum is plotted along vertical axis. The phase space diagram is $x(t)$ vs. $p(t)$ curve in this plane. The arrow on the curve indicates the time flow. For example, the phase space diagram for a particle moving with constant velocity is a straight line as shown in the figure. We use the sign convention in which position or momentum upwards (or to right) is positive and downwards (or to left) is negative. $Image$
