The key to a good lecture: A short but to-the-point explanation ; to assure you don't lose focus and replaying won't be much of a hassle either. Thank you for this!
As someone who has as of yet never done a proper lesson of A-level physics trying to understand some of the course before I start doing it in September, this was very well explained. Thanks very much.
There's a reason this is your most viewed video, waves is probably the hardest year 1 subject, I'm not sure about year 2 but waves is done so early in the curriculum and is so hard
Hello Mr Matheson Really amazing videos!! Just wanted to know if you would be going through A2 also....because literally, your videos very helpful to us students....we have full support for you sir!!
could u do like an actual question on this? i didnt really get the part where u said we can find theta .. like is it the sin = opposite by hypotenuse way..?
A question: how would you find/determine the center of let's say 1st order maximum? Is literally the geometrical center of the fringe, or the place where there is a green color?
Light consisting of two separate wavelengths, 450 nm and 650 nm, falls onto a diffraction grating. The grating is labelled 600 lines per mm. Calculate the angular separation between the first order maximum of the two wavelengths. Help please
+JBC Jackson Use the equation to find the angle theta for n=1 for each wavelength individually. You answer will then be the difference between these two values.
Hi, I have some questions I’m really stuck in. How does rotating the diffraction grating ninety degrees affect the pattern produced? Also how does using a point source of white light affect the pattern produced? Thanks.
White light will defract into all its wavelengths essentialy makeing a rainbow. As for rotateing i dont know of any effect of that, maybee you were thinking of a polarisation filter?
the amount of diffraction depends on how close the width of the slit is to the wavelength, so light of different wavelengths different amounts for a give slit width, resulting in different values for theta
Hey i think that the formula is 2d sinθ=n× lanbda and i have a doubt that we can take any value of n. For example- we have 3 dispersed laser pt so we can put value of n= 1 or 2 or 3. Pls reply
Where can I get a 300 lines/mm diffraction grating exactly like the one you used at 44 seconds into your video? My diffraction grating has 1000 lines/mm and it does not produce higher order image pairs like the one you used in your video. It would mean a lot to me to get the 300 lines/mm grating you used and show my Dad that is does indeed produce higher order image pairs as shown in your video.
I'm in the fifth grade at my school. We haven't talked about lasers or diffraction gratings yet. It's my Dad that bugs me about this stuff. At home we got some diffraction gratings that have 1000 lines/mm and a red laser pointer but it doesn't work. We only get 3 dots no matter what we try. We don't get higher order image pairs like you do in your video. So we are getting more diffraction gratings with less lines per mm. Yours has 300 lines/mm. In a few days we will be able to try this with 100, 300, and 600 lines/mm. It will mean a lot to my Dad to see the higher order image pairs in his lifetime.
Moinul Islam Mainly OCR Spec A, but there is some content for some of the Edexcel and AQA units (I'm still working on the rest of this content), although physics is still physics whichever board you're sitting which is why I haven't mentioned any exam boards in particular in my videos.
CAN YOU SOLVE THIS PROBLEM? consider a one-dimensional array of scatterers with spacing s=1.5 microns. I shine a light of 532 nm wavelength perpendicularly onto this array and look at the back-scattered light on a screen far from the array. How many diffraction "spots" should I see on the screen? Please enter an integer number.
d = 1.5 x 10^-6 m lambda = 532 x 10^-9 m For maximum n of fringes/ spots, theta = 90 therefore n = (d.sintheta)/ lamba You're gonna observe 2.8x2 = approx 6 diffraction spots Correct me if my discretion is wrong. And thanks for the food for thought :)

Great vdo 🔥
I understood the whole thing in 6 min which i cound'nt by reading the book for an hour.
Im wataching you because my teachers can't explain things. Started as level physics this september and i want to get A* at a level.
man you really helped me out here ❤
my all doubts are cleared by watching this....thanks
It was the best explanation thank you !
You are welcome!
Very well explained.This helped me a lot☺
Your video is really really helpful man! Thank you for your time
You are a legend!!! Thank you!!
you're a very good teacher, keep doing what you're doing
+TKDS Thanks
At 5:33 , why is the blue light not spreading out more than yellow and red? Aren’t colours with a shorter wavelength supposed to diffract more?
You saved me! Thanks💖
That really helped me. Thanks a lot
Jolly good!

YOU SAVED MY FUCKING LIFE MAN THANK YOU
Well explained.Thank you very much
very clearly explained, thanks
God bless you !!!!!!
Does the distance between slits mean the same thing as lines per mm of the diffraction grating?
thank you so much^^
so does theata change depending on the order your measuring from or is theata always the angle between the zero'th and first order???????
its between 0th and any order... the 'n' in the equation handles that.
Whoa, sweet interference pattern.
Nice ... Thank you
Thank you so much your video is very useful
great video and all (seriously) but why did you have to go so hard on that frozen DVD, it is not THAT bad.
Thanks so much, very informative!
A question: how would you find/determine the center of let's say 1st order maximum? Is literally the geometrical center of the fringe, or the place where there is a green color?
find the tree for the centre
I don't unterstand what a maxima is??? what do I have to understand by a maximum (definiton)?
Light consisting of two separate wavelengths, 450 nm and 650 nm, falls onto a diffraction grating. The grating is labelled 600 lines per mm.
Calculate the angular separation between the first order maximum of the two wavelengths.
Help please

is this a practical video or just an excuse to hate on Frozen? Experts still don't know

Is this the same video upload on Up-learn?
Yes it is, they use my material and have plenty of other questions too.
@physicsonline do AQA students need to know how to convert degrees into DMS for this topic?
Hello Mr Matheson,
Amazing videos and very helpful!
I wanted to ask where we can find 2015 past papers? (ocr board)
Thank you very much :)
+Dragana Bogdanovic They're not available yet on their main website - but your teachers will have access to them.
Frozen is a masterpiece
Big hero 6 is much better
do you had a video on Solid state physics
Thank you!
Why exactly is theta different for different wavelenghts?
maybe because different wavelengths have different angles
the amount of diffraction depends on how close the width of the slit is to the wavelength, so light of different wavelengths different amounts for a give slit width, resulting in different values for theta
Thanks bro👊
Does the maximum number of orders include the 0th as 1 of them? Or not at all?
Just learnt grating in 6 mins after struggling with it for 9 months
Want to see more videos I've made? Have a look at this video: ruclips.net/video/l9IuaHAgG4k/видео.html What else should I make videos on next?

Thanks!
Do you know what are the applications of diffraction gratings
Thank you
What is d?? The distance between 1st order and O order for example??

What happens when a grating of 600lines/mm is used in place of a 300 line/mm grating??
Can someone please tell me if Increasing the number of lines per mm on a diffraction grating would increase the number of order of maxima?
I have a doubt .. is diffraction and diffraction grating the same?
Even though your videos are amazing, the intro makes my ears bleed

Would the path difference for the first order be lambda or 2lambda??
It would be lambda.
The second order is 2lambda.

d = 1.5 x 10^-6 m

For maximum n of fringes/ spots,

therefore n = (d.sintheta)/ lamba
You're gonna observe 2.8x2 = approx 6 diffraction spots
Correct me if my discretion is wrong. And thanks for the food for thought :)
thanks.
