Question 1

What is the smallest Bragg angle for X-Rays of wavelength 30 pm to reflect from reflecting planes spaced 0.30apart in a calcite crystal.

Question 2

A 50 cm long tube containing 20% sugar solution rotates the plane of polarization of light by 32o. The specific rotation of sugar is

Question 3

Unpolarized light of intensity I is incident on a system of two polarizers, A followed by B. The intensity of emergent light is I/2. If a third polarizer C is placed between A and B, the intensity of emergent light is reduced to I/3. The angle between the polarizers A and C is θ. Then :

Question 5

A system illustrated in Fig. consists of two coherent point sources 1 and 2 located in a certain plane so that their dipole moment is oriented at right angle to the plane. The sources are seperated by a distance d; the radiation wavelength is equale to λ. Taking into account that the oscillations of source 2 lag in phase behind the oscillations of source 1 by ϕ (ϕ<π). What will be the angle θ at which the radiation intensity is maximum?

Question 6

Electrons accelerated from rest by an electrostatic potential are collimated and sent through a Young’s double slit setup. The fringe width is w. If the accelerating potential is doubled then the width is now close to

Question 7

In Young's double slit experiment, the central maxima occur at zero path difference between the interfering beams. A glass plate of thickness 1 mm is inserted to cover the upper slit completely. If the slit separation is 1 mm and the diffraction patterns are observed at the focal plane of the converging lens (focal length 20 mm), which of the following statements on the position of the central maximum is true. Assume the refractive index of the glass is 1.5.

A single slit of width 0.1 mm is illuminated by a parallel beam of light of wavelength 6000 Å and diffraction bands are observed on a screen 0.5 m from the slit. The distance of the third dark band from the central bright band is:

Question 12

Unpolarized light of intensity I passes through an ideal polarizer A. Another identical polarizer B is placed behind A. The intensity of light beyond B is found to be Now another identical polarizer C is placed between A and B. The intensity beyond B is now found to be The angle between polarizer A and C is :

Question 13

Young’s double slit experiment is made in a liquid. The 10th bright fringe in liquid lies where 6th dark fringe lies in vacuum. The refractive index of the liquid is approximately:

Question 14

In Young’s double slit experiment, one of the slit is wider than other, so that the amplitude of the light from one slit is double of that from other slit. If Im be the maximum intensity, the resultant intensity I when they interfere at phase difference ϕ is given by

Question 15

A mixture of light, consisting of wavelength 590 nm and an unknown wavelength, illuminates Young's double slit and gives rise to two overlapping interference patterns on the screen. The central maximum of both lights coincide. Further, it is observed that the third bright fringe of known light coincides with the 4th bright fringe of the unknown light. From this data, the wavelength of the unknown light is:
