White light containing wavelengths from 410 nm to 750 nm falls on a grating with 7800 slits/cm. Part APart complete How wide is the first-order spectrum on a screen 3.20 m away

1.227 m

Explanation:

Given that

Minimum wavelength is 410 nm

Maximum wavelength is 750 nm

Grating is 7800 slits/cm

Distance is 3.2 m

To solve this question, we would use the formula

sin θ = λ/d

sin θ = (410*10^-9) / (0.01/7800)

Sin θ = 410*10^-9 / 1.282*10^-6

Sin θ = 0.32 and θ = 18.67 degrees

For the second wavelength = 750 nm

sin θ = [(0.32x750)/410]

sin θ = (240 / 410)

sin θ = 0.5853 or

θ = 35.8 degrees

And finally, the width of spectrum would be

3.2[tan 35.8 - tan 18.67]

3.2 * 0.3833

= 1.227 m

the duration of a photographic flash is related to an rc time constant, which is 0.100 μs for a certain camera.
