The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the thickness of a diamond sheet that will compensate for the shift caused by the glass sheet in a Young's double-slit interference arrangement. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values**: - Thickness of the glass sheet, \( T_g = 12 \times 10^{-3} \) mm = \( 12 \times 10^{-6} \) m. - Refractive index of glass, \( \mu_g = 1.5 \). - Wavelength of light, \( \lambda = 6000 \) Å = \( 6000 \times 10^{-10} \) m = \( 6 \times 10^{-7} \) m. - The central bright fringe shifts a distance equal to the width of 10 bands. 2. **Calculate the Path Difference Introduced by the Glass Sheet**: - The path difference \( \Delta x_1 \) due to the glass sheet is given by: \[ \Delta x_1 = T_g \cdot (\mu_g - 1) \] - Substituting the values: \[ \Delta x_1 = 12 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \cdot (1.5 - 1) = 12 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \cdot 0.5 = 6 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \] 3. **Relate the Path Difference to the Fringe Shift**: - The shift of the central bright fringe is equal to the path difference caused by the glass sheet, which is equivalent to the width of 10 bands: \[ \Delta x_1 = 10 \lambda \] - Therefore, we can write: \[ 10 \lambda = 6 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \] 4. **Calculate the Required Path Difference for the Diamond Sheet**: - The path difference \( \Delta x_2 \) that needs to be introduced by the diamond sheet is equal to the path difference caused by the glass sheet: \[ \Delta x_2 = 10 \lambda \] 5. **Calculate the Thickness of the Diamond Sheet**: - The path difference due to the diamond sheet is given by: \[ \Delta x_2 = T_d \cdot (\mu_d - 1) \] - Where \( \mu_d = 2.5 \) is the refractive index of diamond. Therefore: \[ 10 \lambda = T_d \cdot (2.5 - 1) \] - Rearranging gives: \[ T_d = \frac{10 \lambda}{\mu_d - 1} \] - Substituting the values: \[ T_d = \frac{10 \cdot 6 \times 10^{-7}}{2.5 - 1} = \frac{60 \times 10^{-7}}{1.5} = 40 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{m} = 4 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \] 6. **Convert to Micrometers**: - Thus, the thickness of the diamond sheet is: \[ T_d = 4 \, \mu m \] ### Final Answer: The thickness of the diamond sheet required to bring the central bright fringe back to its original position is **4 micrometers**.
