In Fig.
36−48, let a beam of x rays of wavelength
0.125nm be incident on an
NaCl crystal at angle
θ=45.0∘ to the top face of the crystal and a family of reflecting planes.
Let the reflecting planes have separation
d=0.252nm. The crystal is turned through angle
ϕ around an axis perpendicular to the plane of the page until these reflecting planes give diffraction maxima.
What are the
(a) smaller and
(b) larger value of
ϕ if the crystal is turned clockwise and the
(c) smaller and
(d) larger value of
ϕ if it is turned counterclockwise?
