32. Ans. Nltra9-iolet light has wa-elength shorter than that of -iolet light. Jees ha-e so!e
retinal cones that are sensiti-e to ultra -iolet light' so they can see o(Aects in ultra9-iolet light.

33. Ans. &n a chicKen/s eye' the retina has a large nu!(er of cones (ut only few rods. 1he
rods are sensiti-e to (right light only. 1hat is why a chicKen is not a(le to see in di! light. As

44. Ans. T0%n12%n3 &4 s"!s. 1he light fro! stars undergoes refraction continuously (efore it
reaches earth. Ho the apparent position of the stars is slightly different than its actual position.
Due to -ariation in at!osphere conditions' liKe change in te!perature' density etc.' and this
apparent position Keeps on changing. 1he a!ount of light entering our eyes fro! a particular
star increases and decreases rando!ly with ti!e. Ho!eti!es' the star appears (righter and
other ti!es' it appears fainter. 1his gi-es rise to the twinKling effect of stars.
T5$ 62"n$s 7& n& s5&0 0%n12%n3 $44$8. As the planets are !uch closer to the earth' the
greater and the fluctuations caused in the a!ount of light due to at!ospheric refraction are
negligi(le as co!pared to the a!ount of light recei-ed fro! the!.
45. Ans. Oight fro! the stars near the horiDon reaches the earth o(li5uely through the
at!osphere. &ts path changes due to refraction. re5uent at!ospheric distur(ances change the
path of light and cause twinKling of stars. Oight fro! the stars o-erhead reaches the earth
nor!ally. &t does not suffer refraction. 1here is no change in its path. Eence there is no
1winKling effect.

;i< 1he fre5uency of the two light sources is sa!e and'
;ii< 1he phase difference (etween the! re!ains constant.
55. 1wo independent light sources cannot act as coherent sources. Why?
Ans. 1wo independent sources of light cannot (e coherent. 1his is (ecause light is e!itted (y
indi-idual ato!s' when they return to ground state. $-en the s!allest source of light contains
(illions of ato!s which o(-iously cannot e!it light wa-es in the sa!e phase.

5+. Ans. 1he gi-en path difference satisfies the condition for the !ini!u! of intensity for
yellow light' Eence if yellow light is used' a darK fringe will (e for!ed at the gi-en point. &f
white light is used' all co!ponents of white light except the yellow one would (e present at
this point.
5.. Ans. 1he positions of (right and darK fringes will change rapidly. Huch rapid changes
cannot (e detected (y our eyes. A unifor! illu!ination is seen on the screen i.e. interference
pattern disappears.
50. Ans. or diffraction to taKe place the wa-e length should (e of the order of the siDe of the
o(stacle. 1he radio wa-es ;particularly short radio wa-es< ha-e wa-e length of the order of
the siDe of the (uilding and other o(stacles co!ing in their way and hence they easily get
diffracted. Hince wa-elength of the light wa-es is -ery s!all. 1hey are not diffracted (y the
(uildings.
%4. Ans. Guslin cloth is !de of -ery fine threads and as such fine slits are for!ed. White
light passing through these silts gets diffracted gi-ing rise to colored spectru!. 1he central
!axi!u! is white while the secondary !axi!a are coloured. 1his is (ecause the positions of
secondary !axi!a ;except central !axi!u!< depend on the wa-elength of light.
&n a coarse cloth' the slits for!ed (etween the threads are wider and the diffraction is not so
pronounced. Eence no such spectru! is seen.
SHORT ANSWER QUESTIONS

A ray is a line drawn perpendicular to the wa-efront in the direction of propagation of light
wa-e.
1he wa-efronts of light e!erging fro! a point source are spherical' as shown in figure. When
a point source is placed at the focus of a con-ex lens' the e!erging light has the plane

;i< When wa-elength of light used is increased' the width of central !axi!u! increases.
;ii< When width of the slit is increased' the width of central !axi!u! decreases.
Wa-elength of light in water decreases' so width of central !axi!u! also decreases.
%4. Ans. When the !onochro!atic source is replaced (y a source of white light' the
diffraction pattern shows following changesP
;i< &n each diffraction order' the diffracted i!age of the slit gets dispersed into co!ponent
colours of white light. As fringe width wa-elength' so the red fringe with higher
wa-elength is wider than -iolet fringe with s!aller wa-elength'

32. Ans. Nltra9-iolet light has wa-elength shorter than that of -iolet light. Jees ha-e so!e
retinal cones that are sensiti-e to ultra -iolet light' so they can see o(Aects in ultra9-iolet light.
Eu!an eyes do not posses retinal cones sensiti-e to ultra9-iolet light' so hu!an (eings

44. Ans. T0%n12%n3 &4 s"!s. 1he light fro! stars undergoes refraction continuously (efore it
reaches earth. Ho the apparent position of the stars is slightly different than its actual position.
Due to -ariation in at!osphere conditions' liKe change in te!perature' density etc.' and this
apparent position Keeps on changing. 1he a!ount of light entering our eyes fro! a particular
star increases and decreases rando!ly with ti!e. Ho!eti!es' the star appears (righter and
other ti!es' it appears fainter. 1his gi-es rise to the twinKling effect of stars.
T5$ 62"n$s 7& n& s5&0 0%n12%n3 $44$8. As the planets are !uch closer to the earth' the
greater and the fluctuations caused in the a!ount of light due to at!ospheric refraction are

45. Ans. Oight fro! the stars near the horiDon reaches the earth o(li5uely through the
at!osphere. &ts path changes due to refraction. re5uent at!ospheric distur(ances change the
path of light and cause twinKling of stars. Oight fro! the stars o-erhead reaches the earth
nor!ally. &t does not suffer refraction. 1here is no change in its path. Eence there is no

55. 1wo independent light sources cannot act as coherent sources. Why?
Ans. 1wo independent sources of light cannot (e coherent. 1his is (ecause light is e!itted (y

%4. Ans. Guslin cloth is !de of -ery fine threads and as such fine slits are for!ed. White
light passing through these silts gets diffracted gi-ing rise to colored spectru!. 1he central
!axi!u! is white while the secondary !axi!a are coloured. 1his is (ecause the positions of
secondary !axi!a ;except central !axi!u!< depend on the wa-elength of light.
&n a coarse cloth' the slits for!ed (etween the threads are wider and the diffraction is not so
pronounced. Eence no such spectru! is seen.
