In Young's double-slit experiment,the intensity at a point on the screen where the path difference is $\lambda/6$ is $I$. If the intensity of the central bright fringe is $I_0$,then $I/I_0$ is:

  • A
    $3/4$
  • B
    $1/\sqrt{2}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{3}/2$
  • D
    $1/2$

In a $YDSE$,the central bright fringe can be identified:

In a double slit experiment with monochromatic light,fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the plane of slits. If the screen is moved by $5 \times 10^{-2} \,m$ towards the slits,the change in fringe width is $3 \times 10^{-3} \,cm$. If the distance between the slits is $1 \,mm$,then the wavelength of the light will be . . . . . . $nm$.

In a Young's double slit experiment,light of $500 \ nm$ is used to produce an interference pattern. When the distance between the slits is $0.05 \ mm$,the angular width (in degrees) of the fringes formed on the distant screen is close to $........^o$.

In $YDSE$,the $Y$-coordinates of the central maxima and the $10^{th}$ maxima are $2 \, cm$ and $5 \, cm$ respectively. When the $YDSE$ apparatus is immersed in a liquid of refractive index $1.5$,what will be the corresponding $Y$-coordinates?

Two slits separated by a distance of $1\, mm$ are illuminated with red light of wavelength $6.5 \times 10^{-7}\, m$. The interference fringes are observed on a screen placed $1\, m$ from the slits. Find the distance between the third dark fringe and the fifth bright fringe on the same side of the central maxima.
