A Michelson interferometer operating at a 400 nm wavelength has a 3.95-cm-long glass cell in one arm. To begin, the air is pumped out of the cell and mirror M2 is adjusted to produce a bright spot at the center of the interference pattern. Then a valve is opened and air is slowly admitted into the cell. The index of refraction of air at 1.00 atmatm pressure is 1.00028.

Required:
How many bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed as the cell fills with air?

Respuesta :

Answer:

55.3

Explanation:

The computation of the number of bright-dark-bright fringe shifts observed is shown below:

[tex]\triangle m = \frac{2d}{\lambda} (n - 1)[/tex]

where

d = [tex]3.95 \times 10^{-2}m[/tex]

[tex]\lambda = 400 \times 10^{-9}m[/tex]

n = 1.00028

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the  number of bright-dark-bright fringe shifts observed is

[tex]= \frac{2 \times3.95 \times 10^{-2}m}{400 \times 10^{-9}m} (1.00028 - 1)[/tex]

= 55.3

We simply applied the above formula so that the number of bright dark bright fringe shifts could come
