Q. No.Huygens' wave theory allows us to know the:
| 1. | wavelength of the wave. |
| 2. | velocity of the wave. |
| 3. | amplitude of the wave. |
| 4. | propagation of the wavefront. |
When the light diverges from a point source, the shape of the wavefront is:
1. Parabolic.
2. Plane.
3. Spherical.
4. Elliptical.
Huygen's principle for secondary wavelets may be used to:
| 1. | explain Snell's law. |
| 2. | find the velocity of light in vacuum. |
| 3. | find a new position of a wavefront. |
| 4. | both (1) & (3) are correct. |
By Huygen's wave theory of light, we cannot explain the phenomenon of:
| 1. | Interference |
| 2. | Diffraction |
| 3. | Photoelectric effect |
| 4. | Polarisation |
Which of the following is not true?
| 1. | The speed of light is dependent on the colour of the light. |
| 2. | The speed of violet light is less than the speed of the red light in glass. |
| 3. | The frequency of light never depends upon the property of the medium. |
| 4. | When the light diverges from a point source, the shape of the wavefront is plane. |
Light travels faster in the air than in glass. This is in accordance with:
| 1. | the wave theory of light. |
| 2. | the corpuscular theory of light. |
| 3. | neither \((1)\) nor \((2)\) |
| 4. | both \((1)\) and \((2)\) |
The plane wavefront is incident on a spherical mirror as shown. The reflected wavefront will be:
| 1. |  |
2. |  |
| 3. |  |
4. |  |
1. \(7\)
2. \(5\)
3. \(\sqrt{7}\)
4. \(6.5\)
Two superposing waves are represented by the following equations: \(y_1=5 \sin 2 \pi(10{t}-0.1 {x}), {y}_2=10 \sin 2 \pi(10{t}-0.1 {x}).\)
The ratio of intensities \(\dfrac{I_{max}}{I_{min}}\) will be:
1. \(1\)
2. \(9\)
3. \(4\)
4. \(16\)
If the ratio of amplitudes of two coherent sources producing an interference pattern is \(3:4\), the ratio of intensities at maxima and minima is:
1. \(3:4\)
2. \(9:16\)
3. \(49:1\)
4. \(25:7\)
