DIFFRACTION GRATING - Q16


16) How can you experimentally verify that the incident rays are normal to the grating surface?
Ans: Rotate the screw of observing telescope so as to move eyepiece front and back. If the slit image doesn’t move along cross wire, then the incident rays are normal to grating surface. Otherwise, incident rays are not normal to the grating surface.
