Expert Answer:
Consider two waves of wavelength 
.A phase difference of 2
correspond to a path difference of .If x is the path difference between two waves and 
is the phase difference, then,

- coherent sources
- two coherent lights with of intensity 5 into 10 to power per to permit your each superimpose and produce the interference pattern on a screen at a point where the path difference between the wave is Lambda divided by 6 where Lambda is the wavelength of the wave find the first phase difference between wave second resultant intensity at the point
- We for equal wave intensities the intensity at a point is given by
but where does the formula
come from??
- Question 15
- kindly answer
- kindly provide answer pl
- In young double slit experiment, slit with ratio is 3:2 then find out the ratio of the maximum and minimum intensity of interference of light.
- In Young's double slit experiment, the distance between the slit is kept smaller than the wavelength of the light. What is the effect?
- Why is Interference pattern not detected when the two coherent sources are far apart?
