Question

Diffraction, at high frequencies, depends upon 1. geometry of the object 2. polarization of the incident wave 3. amplitude of the incident wave 4. frequency of the incident wave

Answer 1

Diffraction at high frequencies depends upon geometry of object ,polarisation of light and amplitude of incident wave

• Diffraction tends to bending of rays even line of sight does not exists between the receiver and transmitter
• Through diffraction we can know the slit width for single and double slit experiments.We can say it reveals the geometry of object
• Diffraction is directly proportional to the polarization of incident wave
• Diffraction also deoends on the amplitude of the incident wave.The wave amplitude determines the overall intensity
