A: When a tiny circular obstacle is placed in the path of light from a distant source, a bright spot is seen at the centre of the shadow of the obstacle. R: Waves diffracted from the edge of the circular obstacle interfere constructively at the centre of the shadow producing a bright spot.

In a singleslit diffraction experiment, when a tiny circular obstacle is placed in the path of light from a distant source, a bright spot is seen at the centre of the shadow of the obstacle. Explain why ? State two points of difference the interference pattern obtained in Young's double slit experiment and the diffraction pattern due to a single slit.

(a) Define a wavefront. Using Huygen's principle, verify the laws of reflection at a plane surface . (b) In a single slit diffraction experiment the wildth of the slit is made double the orignal width. How does this affect the size and intensity of the central diffraction band ? Explain. (c) When a tiny circular obstacle in placed in the path of light from a distance source, a bright spot is seen at the centre of the obstacle . Explain why.

On a particle moving on a circular path with constant speed v , light is thrown from a projectors placed at the centre of the circular path. The shadow of the particle is formed on the wall. The velocity of shadow up the wall is

A circular coil of radius 2R is carrying current 'i' . The ratio of magnetic fields at the centre of the coil and at a point at a distance 6R from the centre of the coil on the axis of the coil is

Interference fringes were produced using light in a doulbe-slit experiment. When a mica sheet of uniform thickness and refractive index 1.6 (relative to air) is placed in the path of light from one of the slits, the central fringe moves through some distance. This distance is equal to the width of 30 interference bands if light of wavelength 4800 is used. The thickness (in mu m ) of mica is
