title: Diffraction Slits aka: Cornell slit film also Pasco Diffraction set |
Description: Laser aimed at differing slit arrangements. Use front surface mirror to increase the throw length. Pasco slit set also available. Questions? What is the main difference between single and double slits? Which single slit is the narrowest on the film? What happens when the double slits get closer together? What happens when there are multiple single slits equally spaced? Notes on the Cornel Slit Film (as shown in the picture): top row: double slits getting closer together. 2nd row: 5 evenly spaced slits, then 4,3,2 & 1 3rd row: different slit density gratings, greatest at center. 4th row: continuously variable single/double slit 5th row: single slit, growing wider. PASCO slits on far right: Multiple slit set: Double slits, multiple slits, variable double slits, Comparisons Single Slit Set single slits, variable slit, patterns, circular apartures. |
