sodium light
Newton's rings can be used to determine the wavelength of light because the diameter of the rings varies with the wavelength of the light being used. By measuring the diameter of the rings, the wavelength of the light can be calculated using the formula for constructive interference.
Since a plano-convex lens is being used in Newton's Rings .. that's why=the fringes are seen circular from above, on the glass plate.=
rings start collapsing to the centre
Newton's rings are caused by interference of light waves. When monochromatic light is used, then newton's rings are alternately dark and bright .When white light is used then a few coloured rings are visible.After that due to overlapping of rings of different colours , the rings cannot be viewed. The different colored rings are obtained because of different wavelength of colors. the order of colors depend on order of ring.
Any wavelength of light can be used. Natural light, the white light we receive from the Sun, is a mixture of waves with wavelengths between about 350 and 700 nm.
Newton's rings are formed due to the interference of light waves reflected between a plano-convex lens and a flat glass surface in contact with each other. This interference creates alternating dark and bright rings, with the center being a dark spot. The varying thickness of the air gap between the lens and the glass surface causes the light waves to interfere constructively and destructively, resulting in the pattern of rings.
newtons ring is formed due to the consequtive circle of different radius of bright and dark in which the centre is dark
Cornu's fringes are hyperbolic because they are formed due to the interference of light waves that are not perfectly spherical when they meet at an angle. Newton's rings are circular because they are formed by the interference of light waves that are spherical in shape due to reflection between a flat glass surface and a convex lens.
newtons rings
if we use glass plate then ring's will be clear
ten years rings of same colour are years, whether light or dark
