) The intensity of the diffraction pattern is proportional to ______ of the wave function
(a) forth power (b) cube
(c ) sixth power (d) square
Answers
Answer:
B) cube is the correct option
mark me as brainliest
" Option d) is correct ".
Explanation:
When the intensity increases, the diffraction maximum becomes shorter as well as more intense. When you have 600 slits, the maxima are very incisive and bright and permit high resolution separation of the maxima for different wavelengths. Such as multiple slit is called a diffraction grating.
Computer created intensity pattern formed on a screen by diffraction from a square aperture.
Consider, Light intensity is the amount of light that falls on a unit area in a unit time. So, when the diffraction pattern is formed, some area within the diffraction pattern has low or less intensity and in the laser some has more intensity than the original intensity .
In the single slit diffraction relates the amplitude of the resultant field at any point in the diffraction pattern to the amplitude at the central maximum. The intensity of pattern is proportional to the square of the amplitude.
Hence, The intensity of the diffraction pattern is proportional to Square of the wave function.
