In a Young's double-slit experiment,interference fringes are obtained on a screen placed at a certain distance from the slits using monochromatic light. If the screen is moved towards the slits by $5 \times 10^{-2} \, m$,the fringe width changes by $3 \times 10^{-5} \, m$. If the distance between the slits is $10^{-3} \, m$,find the wavelength of the light.

  • A
    $6 \times 10^{-5} \, m$
  • B
    $6 \times 10^{-3} \, m$
  • C
    $6 \times 10^3 \, m$
  • D
    $6 \times 10^{-7} \, m$

In the Young's double slit experiment,the distance between the slits varies in time as $d(t) = d_{0} + a_{0} \sin \omega t$; where $d_{0}$,$\omega$,and $a_{0}$ are constants. The difference between the largest fringe width and the smallest fringe width obtained over time is given as:

In a $YDSE$,bichromatic light of wavelengths $\lambda_1 = 400\, nm$ and $\lambda_2 = 560\, nm$ is used. The distance between the slits is $d = 0.1\, mm$ and the distance between the plane of the slits and the screen is $D = 1\, m$. The minimum distance between two successive regions of complete darkness is.....$mm$.

In a double slit experiment,the distance between slits is increased $10$ times,whereas their distance from the screen is halved. The fringe width:

In Young's double-slit experiment,the distance between the two slits is $1 \, mm$ and the distance between the slits and the screen is $1 \, m$. If the wavelength of the light used is $500 \, nm$,then the distance of the third minimum from the central maximum is ... $mm$.

In Young's double slit experiment,if monochromatic light is replaced by white light:
