By Huygen's wave theory of light, we cannot explain the phenomenon of:
1. | Interference |
2. | Diffraction |
3. | Photoelectric effect |
4. | Polarisation |
If L is the coherence length and c the velocity of light, the coherent time is
(1) cL
(2)
(3)
(4)
Wavefront is:
1. locus of all adjacent points at which the phase of vibration of a physical quantity associated with the wave in the same
2. locus of all adjacent points at which the electric field is the same
3. series of points on the wave with the same amplitude
4. series of points on the wave with the same frequency
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. |
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. |
