Final answer:
In a double slit simulation, shifting from blue to orange light, leads to increased fringe spacing, potential changes in pattern intensity due to amplitude adjustment, and expansion of the interference pattern across the screen.
Step-by-step explanation:
To revolve around changes observed in a double slit experiment simulation when you move from blue light to orange light. When switching from blue light (which has a shorter wavelength) to orange light (which has a longer wavelength), the following changes are expected to occur:
- The fringe spacing on the screen will increase, as longer wavelengths lead to wider spacing between the interference fringes.
- The pattern intensity on the screen might change due to the variation in light amplitude which affects the brightness of the fringes.
- The overall interference pattern will expand across the screen because wavelength is directly proportional to the distance between fringes in the interference pattern of a double slit experiment.
These changes reflect the principles behind wave interference and diffraction, showing how wavelength impacts the double slit experiment results.
