MEASUREMENT OF THE WAVELENGTH OF MONOCHROMATIC LIGHT Apparatus Sodium lamp, spectrometer and diffraction grating (300 lines per mm).

The Spectrometer

Procedure 1. Adjust the eyepiece of the telescope to focus the crosswires. 2. Focus the telescope for parallel light using a distant object. 3. Place the sodium lamp in front of the collimator. 4. Level the turntable of the spectrometer. 5. Looking through the telescope, focus the collimator lens and adjust the width of the slit until a clear narrow image is seen. 6. Place the grating on the turntable at right angles to the beam. 7. Move the telescope to the right until the cross wires are centred on the first bright image. Take the reading from the scale on the turntable. θr 8. Move the telescope back through the centre and then to the first bright image on the left. Take the reading θL from the scale. 9. Calculate θ using θ = ½(θL-θr). 10. Calculate the distance d between the slits. 11. Calculate the wavelength λ using nλ=dsinθ. 12. Repeat this for different orders (n) and get an average value for the wavelength

Results nλ=dsinθ The wavelength is Precautions d = 1/300 mm n θL θR θ λ 1 2 nλ=dsinθ The wavelength is Precautions Make sure the grating is perpendicular to the collimator. Repeat with several orders and find an average wavelength.
