Young's Double-Slit Experiment

AI Thread Summary
Factors contributing to measurement error in the wavelength of laser light include human errors, environmental conditions, and equipment stability. To reduce these errors, suggestions include ensuring the laser is placed on a stable, flat surface, projecting onto a flat surface, and maintaining clean optical components. Additionally, understanding the behavior of electrons and their energy loss may provide insights into the experiment's outcomes. The discussion highlights the importance of precision in experimental setups to achieve accurate results. Overall, careful handling and setup can significantly enhance measurement accuracy in Young's Double-Slit Experiment.

Homework Statement


a) What are the factors that contribute to the error in the measurement of the wavelength of laser light?

b) Are there methods you might use to reduce the error, given that the wavelength of the laser light is known to at at least four significant digits?

The Attempt at a Solution


All i can come up with are human errors. and to improve it = placing laser on a flat surface, stable surface, projecting on a flat surface, and cleaning the slide.
What do you guys think? Thanks.

1] it is bcoz the electron would loses its energy i.e. y it although haviing a regular pattern maybe varying in the middle
2]well to how to lose it is through making it more excited
correct me if iam wrong
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
