View SolutionWhite light is passed through a double slit and interference is observed on a screen $1.5 \, m$ away. The separation between the slits is $0.3 \, mm$. The first violet and red fringes are formed $2.0 \, mm$ and $3.5 \, mm$ away from the central white fringes. The difference in wavelengths of red and violet light is $.... \, nm$.

View SolutionIn $YDSE$, the distance of the slits from the screen is increased by $25 \%$ and the separation between the slits is halved. If $W$ represents the original fringe width, the new fringe width is (in $\,W$)
The slits in a Young's double-slit experiment have equal widths, and the source is placed symmetrically relative to the slits. The intensity at the central fringe is $I_0$. If one of the slits is closed, the intensity at this point will be
