Interference Patterns

111- Interference Patterns

In this video Paul Andersen explains how constructive and destructive interference can create interference patterns. Interference patterns can be created by all types of waves, including water, sound, and light. A classic experiment that demonstrates interference patterns is the monochromatic double slit experiment.

If we consider the biratio influence as a potential phenomenon or concept, it is worth noting that the combination of certain optical properties and characteristics of light can sometimes lead to paradoxical or unexpected results.

For example, when light passes through certain materials with birefringence (the property of splitting light into two different rays with different refractive indices), the resulting interaction between the rays and the material can create unique and sometimes bewildering optical effects. These effects might manifest as unusual color patterns, interference patterns, or even apparent changes in the direction or shape of objects.

In a broader sense, paradoxes can also arise when studying the behavior of light and its interaction with different media, such as the wave-particle duality of light or the various phenomena observed in quantum mechanics. These paradoxes arise from the complexities and intricacies of light and the limitations of our current understanding and models.

Without more specific details or explanations regarding the biratio influence in spectrum colors and the associated paradox, it is not possible to provide a more detailed understanding of the concept or its implications.

Thank you very much Paul for the clear and outstanding explanation.

Nice. This is really evident in the height of radio antennas above ground, when the ground acts as a reflector. Effectively you therefore have two wave sources or two slits, the direct wave and the reflected wave. Varying the height of the antenna varies the angular width of the in-phase and out-of-phase lobes. Would have been nice to see in this video the effect of varying the distance between the slits, as ILS glideslope antennas use this principle to help create the beams required to guide aircraft in. A lot of adjustment is required, including the height of the antennas, and the relative phase in which they are fed, but the basic principle is effectively the double slit being applied.

Another outstanding video.  Keep up the good work.

just realised bozeman logo has the diffraction pattern

Ye it toke me a couple or three time too get it ! I was just watch the wave pattern and totally ! Miss the light and dark part that called constructed and destructive . Now back to parallel universes .

[shweta]

thank u so much sir u do a great great job📚😃

I did the double slit experiment and to test interference is real, and the draw on the sensor plate is the result of cancellation phases.. i put the white paper and i saw the pattern, but when i move the paper more closer to the laser, the pattern did not change, how you explain that? because if the pattern was a result of interference wave, then, moving the paper closer would pick different cancelling phases right? well it did not, the pattern is always the same.

nobody noticed the periodicity in peaks even in the one slit condition (trough at center)?

Slow might have helped. Fast and flat like a book :(..

How are the gaps considered the same size as the wavelength, they are much smaller? You need to clarify how they are the same size.

I just created a new interference pattern I think check this out.
