Brilliant Pattern

ProblemProblem

Suspend a water drop at the lower end Suspend a water drop at the lower end of a vertical pipe. Illuminate the drop of a vertical pipe. Illuminate the drop using a laser pointer and observe the using a laser pointer and observe the pattern created on a screen. Study and pattern created on a screen. Study and explain the structure of the patternexplain the structure of the pattern

Theory Huygens’s Principle

Every point on a propagating wavefront serves as the source of spherical secondary wavelets, wavelets, such that the wavefront at some later time is the envelope of these wavelets

ConclusionGeometrical Optics:Geometrical Optics:

– At 0o the light passes through the water droplet and is magnified

– At 180o the light is reflected and refracted by the water droplet; thus, interference is demonstrated

– At other degrees because the light beam has attenuated its energy so patterns are unable to be observed

Wave Optics: Wave Optics: – Due to Huygens’s law, light is diffracted,

so diffraction bands are observable– As water droplets are enlarged the

distance between each band decreases
