In a Young's double-slit experiment, the screen is moved away from the plane of the slits. What will be its effect on the following? (i) Angular separ...

According to Huygens principle, the amplitude of secondary wavelets is

A beam of light travels from air into a medium. Its speed and wavelength in the medium are $$1.5 \times 10^8\mathrm{ms}^{-1}$$ and $$230 \mathrm{~nm}$...

Assertion (A) : In Young's double slit experiment all fringes are of equal width. Reason (R) : The fringe width depends upon wavelength of light $$(\l...

(a) A plane wave-front propagating in a medium of refractive index '$$\mu_1$$' is incident on a plane surface making an angle of incidence (i). It ent...

What happens to the interference pattern when two coherent sources are (a) infinitely close, and (b) far apart from each other

(a) (i) State Huygen's principle. With the help of a diagram, show how a plane wave is reflected from a surface. Hence, verify the law of reflection. ...
