A 680 nm laser illuminates a double slit apparatus with a slit separation distance of 7.83 μm. On the viewing screen, you measure the distance from the central bright fringe to the 2nd bright fringe to be 88.2 cm. How far away (in meters) is the viewing screen from the double slits?

L = 5.08 10⁻¹ m = 50.8 cm

Explanation:

In a double slit experiment for constructive interference is given by

           d sin θ = m λ

let's use trigonometry to find a relationship with the distance

           tan θ = y / L

these experiments are very small angles

           tan θ = = sin θ

when substituting

           sin θ = y / L

substituting in the first equation

           d y / L = m λ

           L =

let's calculate

           L =

           L = 5.08 10⁻¹ m

two charges are fixed in place on the x-axis as shown. the charge at x = 0 is negative and has magnitude q = 2 μcoulombs (1 μcoulomb = 10-6 coulombs). the charge at x = d, (d = +12 cm), is positive and has magnitude q = 4 μcoulombs. find a point x = xo along the x-axis at which the electric field is zero.

ill do it for 100, also this isnt 80 its 40
