6 Questions
What are the conditions for Fresnel diffraction to occur?
Fresnel diffraction occurs when the light source and the screen are at a finite distance from the diffracting object.
What is the difference between Fresnel and Fraunhofer diffraction?
Fresnel diffraction occurs when the light source and the screen are at a finite distance from the diffracting object, while Fraunhofer diffraction occurs when the light source and the screen are at an infinite distance from the diffracting object.
Match the following diffraction types with their conditions:
Fresnel diffraction = Applies to near-field diffraction Fraunhofer diffraction = Applies to far-field diffraction
What are the conditions for Fraunhofer diffraction to occur?
Fraunhofer diffraction occurs when the light source and the screen are at an infinite distance from the diffracting object.
Match the following diffraction types with their mathematical analysis:
Fresnel diffraction = Involves complex mathematical calculations Fraunhofer diffraction = Involves simpler mathematical calculations
Match the following diffraction types with their practical applications:
Fresnel diffraction = Commonly observed in everyday situations Fraunhofer diffraction = Applied in radio astronomy and X-ray crystallography
