  • A
    consecutive fringe lines will come closer.
  • B
    the central bright fringe will become a dark fringe.
  • C
    the fringes will become brighter.
  • D

In a Young's double-slit experiment,the slits are $2 \, mm$ apart and are illuminated by a mixture of two wavelengths $\lambda_1 = 7500 \, \mathring{A}$ and $\lambda_2 = 9000 \, \mathring{A}$. At what distance from the central maximum on a screen $2 \, m$ away will a bright fringe from one interference pattern coincide with a bright fringe from the other?

When a thin metal plate is placed in the path of one of the interfering beams of light in a Young's double-slit experiment,what happens to the interference pattern?

In a Young's double slit experiment,two slits are illuminated with light of wavelength $\lambda = 800 \, nm$. The line joining $A_1 P$ is perpendicular to $A_1 A_2$ as shown in the figure. If the first minimum is detected at $P$,the value of slit separation '$a$' will be $......... \, mm$. The distance of the screen from the slits is $D = 5 \, cm$.

In Young's experiment,the ratio of maximum to minimum intensities of the fringe system is $4:1$. The amplitudes of the coherent sources are in the ratio: (in $:1$)

Light of wavelength $600 \, nm$ is incident on a double slit and the interference fringes are formed on a screen $1 \, m$ apart. The separation between two consecutive dark fringes on a screen is found to be $1.2 \, mm$. What is the separation between the slits in $mm$?
