Young’s Double Slit
The spacing and position of the slits can be adjusted. Young’s Double Slit experiment is a phenomenon in which light passing through two slits creates a specific pattern. Each slit acts as…

Superposition
Superposition occurs when two or more waves pass through each other. When two or more waves superimpose, the amplitudes are added together. it creates constructive interference or destructive interference.
Superposition and Interference
Superposition occurs when two or more waves pass through each other. When two or more waves superimpose, the amplitudes are added together. it creates constructive interference or destructive interference.
Newton Ring
Newton rings are caused by the interference of two reflections. Newton Rings are observed when light is reflected from a plano-convex lens of a long focal length placed in contact with a…

Diffraction Grating
The diffraction grating is a transparent plate with a very thin line on the surface. Light (photons) like to go in the same phase. In the same phase, constructive interference occurs. If…

Why does a CD reflect rainbow colors?
Light (photons) like to go in the same phase. In the same phase, constructive interference occurs. If the phases are different, the waves cancel each other out. The light that passes through…
