You are using a hydrogen discharge tube and high quality red and blue light filters as the light source for a Michelson interferometer. The hydrogen discharge tube provides light of several different wavelengths (colors) in the visible range. The red light in the hydrogen spectrum has a wavelength of 656.3 nm and the blue light has a wavelength of 434.0 nm. When using the discharge tube and the red filter as the light source, you view a bright red spot...
Problem 22.65 Constants I Periodic Table Part A A Michelson interferometer operating at a 600 nm wavelength has a 3.92-cm-long glass cell in one arm. To begin, the air is pumped out of the cell and mirror M2 is adjusted to produce a bright spot at the center of the interference patten. Then a valve is opened and air is slowly admitted into the cell. The index of refraction of air at 1.00 atm pressure is 1.00028. How many bright-dark-bright...

Moving mirror M2 of a Michelson interferometer a distance of 120 μm causes 470 bright-dark-bright fringe shifts. What is the wavelength of the light? Answer in nm.
when a mirror M1 of a Michelson interferometer is moved to the left by 145 nanometers, a bright fringe shifts to a dark fringe. What is the wavelength of the light?
A Michelson interferometer is irradiated with light of wavelength 633 nm (He-Ne laser). When one of the mirrors is moved, 800 fringe pairs (each fringe pair is an adjacent dark and bright line) pass by a fixed point in the viewing pattern. How far was the mirrow moved?

An important experimental device that uses interference is the Michelson interferometer. Michelson interferometers are used to make precise measurements of wavelengths and of very small distances. A Michelson interferometer takes monochromatic light from a single source and divides it into two waves that follow different paths. Interference occurs when the two light waves are recombined. The figure below shows the principal components of a Michelson interferometer. A ray of light from a monochromatic source A strikes the beam splitter C,...
