The frequency range of visible light is from 3.75 × 1014 Hz to 7.5 × 1014 Hz. Calculate its wavelength range. Take speed of light = 3 × 108 m/s.
उत्तर
Frequency f = 3.75 × 1014 Hz
Velocity of light (C) = 3 × 108 m/s
λ = `C/f`
= `(3 xx 10^8)/(3.75 xx 10^14)`
= `(3000 xx 10^5)/(375 xx 10^12)`
λ = `(8 xx 10^5)/(10^12)`
= `8 × 10^(5 - 12)`
= 8 × 10-7 m
= 8 × 10-7 × 1010 Å
= `8 × 10^(-7+10)`
= 8 × 103 Å
Also, f = 7.5 × 1014 Hz
λ = `C/f`
= `(3 xx 10^8)/(7.5 xx 10^14)` m
= `(3 xx 10^8)/(75 xx 10^13)` m
= `(300)/(75) xx (10^6)/(10^13)`
= `4 × 10^(6 - 13)`m
= 4 × 10-7
= `4 xx 10^(-7 + 10)`
= 4 × 103
= 4000 Å
∴ Wavelength range of visible light is 4000 Å to 8000 Å

In an experiment to trace the path of a ray of light through a triangular glass prism, a student would observe that the emergent ray
(a) is parallel to the incident ray.
(b) is along the same direction of incident ray.
(c) gets deviated and bends towards the thinner part of the prism.

What is the cause of the dispersion of white light through a glass prism? Draw a ray diagram to show the path of light when two identical glass prisms are arranged together in an inverted position with respect to each other and a narrow beam of white light is allowed to fall obliquely on one of the faces of the prisms.
Observe the given figure and write appropriate phenomenon of light in the box.
Assertion: We can see the rainbow in the sky when the rain starts falling after a spell of bright sunlight.
Reason: The rainbow is formed due to the dispersion of light.
