DIFFRACTION OF LIGHT

Assertion : The sun lookes bigger in size at sunrise and sunset than during day. Reason : The phenomenon of diffraction bends light rays.

Assertion: Coloured spectrum is seen when we look through a muslim cloth. Reason: It is due to the diffraction of white light on passing through fine slits.

In a single slit diffraction pattern, a light of wavelength 6000 dot A is used. The distance between the first and third minima in the diffraction pattern is found to be 3 mm when the screen in placed 50cm away from slits. The width of the slit is _________ times 10^(-4) m.

Both light and soucnd waves produced diffraction. It is more difficult to bserve the diffraction with light waves because

The size of the obstacel in order to observe diffraction fo light must be

Diffraction and interference of light refers to -

In single slit diffraction experiment, yellow light is replaced by X-rays. How will the diffraction pattern be affected ?
