Diffraction
Cards in this deck (7)
- 1In order to observe diffraction and interference, the light source must be .....Coherent
- 2The angular positions of the minima =the wavelength of the light /
the width of the slit - 3... takes place when a wave passes through a small openingDiffraction
- 4Wavelenght of visible lightfrom 400nm to 700nm
- 5if a beam of light passes through a narrow slit (close to the wavelenght of light)it will spread out (due to diffraction)
- 6the ammount of bending depends on...the relative size of the wavelenght of light to the size of the opening
- 7if the opening is much larger than the ligth's wavelenght, the bending will be...almost unnoticeable
