Anna University Exam Part-B Questions - Applied Physics I: Chapter 8: Applied Optics - Interference.

ANNA UNIVERSITY 'PART‒B' QUESTIONS

 

1. Explain with theory, air wedge method of determining the radius of a thin wire.

 

2. Explain the construction, types of fringes and applications of Michelson interferometer.

 

3. Describe Michelson interfermeter and explain the formation of fringes in it. Discuss how this interferometer is used to find the wavelength of monochromatic light. Also explain how the thickness of a thin transparent film or plate is determined using this.

 

4. Illustrate with figures, the different types of fringes formed in Michelson's interferometer and the corresponding positions of mirrors for them.

 

5. Describe the construction and working of Michelson's Interferometer.

How is the wavelength of a monochromatic light source determined using the Michelson's interferometer.

 

6. Describe the construction and working of Michelson's interferometer. Also explain, with necessary theory, a laboratory experiment of finding the wavelength of a monochromatic of light using Michelson's interferometer.

 

7. Explain how the wavelength of monochromatic source of light can be experimentally determined using a Michelson's Interferometer.

 

8. Explain the formation of interference fringes in an air‒wedge shaped film. How is the thickness of the wire determined by this method?

 

9. Michelson's Interferometer and explain the formation of the fringes.

 

10. Describe an experiment to determine the thickness of a thin wire by forming an Air wedge.

 

 

ADDITIONAL PART‒B' QUESTIONS

 

1. With necessary theory explain the formation of interference fringes in the wedge shaped thin films.

 

2. Give an experiment determination of thickness of any thin material, by forming an Air wedge.

 

3. Describe the construction and working of the Michelson's interferometer. How will you adjust the interferometer to obtain

(i) Localised fringes

(ii) White light localised fringes and

(iii) Circular fringes.

 

4. What are the applications of Michelson's interferometer. Describe any one of its applications in detail.
