Newton discovered an example of interference which is known as “Newton’s rings”. In this case a lens L is placed on a sheet of plane…
A laboratory experiment to measure wavelength by Young’s interference bands is shown in the diagram below. Light from a small filament lamp is focused by…
Before we begin to explain the Lummer – Brodhun Photometer, lets first explain what a Photometer is. A photometer is an instrument which can be…
Light is a form of energy which stimulates the sensation of vision. The sun emits a continuous stream of energy, consisting of ultra-violet, visible, and…
Simple harmonic motion (S.H.M.) occurs when the force acting on an object or system is directly proportional to its displacement x from a fixed point…
The radiant energy which Herschel found beyond the red is now called infra-red radiation, because it is less refracted than the red. Radiant energy is…
A constant potential difference across terminals of a circuit that produces steady current is known as Electromotive force. This electromotive force and the principles underlining…
Use of Radioactive Isotopes. Naturally occurring radium has been used for some time in radiotherapy, particularly in the treatment of cancer, and the y-rays from…
The detection and measurement of the various sorts of radiation associated with radioactivity is very important both for research purposes and in order to ensure…
