Today’s Goals:

* Huygen's principle
* Interference of waves
* Y. D. S. E
* Path difference produced by slab
* Diffraction
* Resolving power
* Polarization.
Huygen’s Wave Theory:
Huygen’s principle:
Wavefront:
“ It is the locus of all points of the medium which oscillate in the same
phase”
Point source Distant source Linear source
Q.2
Secondary wavelets:
Huygen’s construction.
Behavior of plane wave front on Reflection & Refraction:

i) Refraction of plane wave front by a prism:

ii) Refraction of a plane wave front by a convex lens:
iii) Refraction of a plane wave front by concave lens:
iv) Refraction of a plane wave front by concave mirror:

Superposition principle:
This is known as principle of superposition. If Y 1 and Y 2 represent the individual
displacement then the resultant displacement is given by Y = Y 1 + Y 2

Fringe width (𝜷) :
Q.2
Fringe width (𝜷) can be increased by:

• Decreasing the separation between the slits (d)

• Increasing the distance between the screen and slits (D)

• Increasing the wavelength of the source

Q. Two slits separated by a distance of 1mm are illuminated with red light of
wavelength 6.5× 10-7m. The interference fringes are observed on a screen placed
1m from the slits. The distance between the third dark fringe and the fifth bright
fringe on the same side of central maxima is
(a) 0.65 mm (b) 1.62 mm (c) 3.25 mm (d) 4.88 mm
Q. In a Young’s experiment, two coherent sources are placed 0.90 mm apart and the
fringes are observed one metre away. If it produces the second dark fringe at a distance
of 1 mm from the central fringe, the wavelength of monochromatic light used would be
