In a bi-prism experiment the eye-piece was placed at a distance 1.5m from the source. The distance between the virtual sources was found to be equal to 7.5 x 10-4 m. Find the wavelength of the source of light if the eye-piece has to be moved transversely through a distance of 1.88 cm for 10 fringes.

λ = 1.4 × 10^(-7) m

Explanation:

We are given;

distance of eye piece from the source;D = 1.5 m

distance between the virtual sources;d = 7.5 × 10^(-4) m

To find the wavelength, we will use the formula for fringe width;

X = λD/d

Where X is fringe width, λ is wavelength, while d and D remain as before.

Now, fringe width = eye-piece distance moved transversely/number of fringes

Eye piece distance moved transversely = 1.88 cm = 1.88 × 10^(-2) m

Thus,

Fringe width = (1.88 × 10^(-2))/10 = 1.88 × 10^(-3) m

Thus;

1.88 × 10^(-3) = λ(1.5)/(7.5 × 10^(-4))

λ = [1.88 × 10^(-3) × (7.5 × 10^(-4))]/1.5

λ = 1.4 × 10^(-7) m

they are non-matter

explanation:

they are non-matter. basically, any type of energy or any abstract concept is an example of something that does not matter. other examples include dreams, magnetism, radio, and hate
