In a Fresnel's biprism experiment,fringes are obtained in the focal plane of an eyepiece at a distance of $1 \ m$ from the slit. $A$ convex lens is placed between the biprism and the eyepiece. The images of the slit are formed at two positions of the lens. The distances between the two images of the slit at these two positions are $4.05 \times 10^{-3} \ m$ and $2.9 \times 10^{-3} \ m$ respectively. Calculate the distance between the slits.

  • A
    $3.43 \times 10^{-3} \ m$
  • B
    $3.75 \times 10^{-3} \ m$
  • C
    $1.23 \times 10^{-4} \ m$
  • D
    $2.33 \times 10^{-3} \ m$

In a Fresnel's biprism experiment,a mica sheet of refractive index $1.5$ and thickness $6 \times 10^{-6} \ m$ is placed in the path of one of the interfering beams. As a result,the central fringe shifts by a distance equal to $5$ fringe widths. Find the wavelength of light in $\mathring{A}$.

Dark and colour patterns on thin soap films are due to

In a biprism experiment,monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$ is used. The distance between the two coherent sources $d$ is kept constant. If the distance between the slit and the eyepiece $D$ is varied as $D_1, D_2, D_3, D_4$ and the corresponding measured fringe widths are $W_1, W_2, W_3, W_4$,then:
