the wavelegth range of the visible spectrum extends from violet ( 400 nm) to red ( 750 nm). Express these wavelengths in frequencies (Hz) . (1nm =` 10 ^(-9)m`)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

using equation 2.5, frequency of violet light
`v= c/lambda=(3.00xx10^(8)ms^(-1))/(400xx10^(-9)m)`
` 7.50xx10^(14) Hz`
frequency of red light `v= c/lambda=(3.00xx10^(8)ms^(-1))/(400xx10^(-9)m)=4.00xx10^(14)Hz`
the range of visible spectrum is form `4.0xx10^(14) "to" 7.5 xx 10^(14) Hz` in terms of frequency units.

Two slits are made on an opaque surface at a separation of 1 mm from each other. A screen is placed at a distance 1 m from the plane of the slits. A small hole is made on the screen at a distance 1 mm from the centre of the screen as shown in the figure. If we observe the light coming out from hole on the other side, then which wavelengths in the visible region will be absent and which will show strong presence ? Wavelength of visible light ranges from 400 nm to 700 nm.
