JEE Main 2009 — Physics Optics

Which of the following are true for a single slit diffraction? A. Width of central maxima increases with increase in wavelength keeping slit width constant. B. Width of central maxima increases with decrease in wavelength keeping slit width constant. C. Width of central maxima increases with decrease in slit width at constant wavelength. D. Width of central maxima increases with increase in slit width at constant wavelength. E. Brightness of central maxima increases for decrease in wavelength at constant slit width.

In parallax method for the determination of focal length of a concave mirror, the object should always be placed:

A slit of width $a$ is illuminated by light of wavelength $\lambda$. The linear separation between $1^{st}$ and $3^{rd}$ minima in the diffraction pattern produced on a screen placed at a distance $D$ from the slit system is _____.

A beam of light consisting of wavelengths 650 nm and 550 nm illuminates the Young's double slits with separation of 2 mm such that the interference fringes are formed on a screen, placed at a distance of 1.2 m from the slits. The least distance of a point from the central maximum, where the bright fringes due to both the wavelengths coincide, is $\_\_\_\_$ $\times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~m}$.

A thin prism with angle $5^{\circ}$ of refractive index 1.72 is combined with another prism of refractive index 1.9 to produce dispersion without deviation. The angle of second prism is $\_\_\_\_$.
