2Slit Graph Example Page

This is an example of the intensity distribution of monochromatic light produced by 2 thin slits and projected on a screen. This graph is presented in both pictorial, and auditory formats. In the auditory graph, the Y-Axis is represented by Pitch, and the X-Axis is represented by time. First and second derivative information (slope and curvature) about graphed data is represented with a drum beat, the rate of the beat represents the slope, and the pitch represents positive, 0, or negative curvature.

The range of the X axis (wavelength) is: -1 to 1 cm
The range of the Y axis (relative intensity) is: 0 to 1
