In Young's double slit experiment,the two slits act as coherent sources of equal amplitude $A$ and wavelength $\lambda$. In another experiment with the same setup,the two slits are of equal amplitude $A$ and wavelength $\lambda$ but are incoherent. The ratio of the intensity of light at the mid-point of the screen in the first case to that in the second case is

$A$ double slit experiment is immersed in water of refractive index $n = 1.33$. The slit separation is $d = 1 \text{ mm}$, and the distance between the slit and the screen is $D = 1.33 \text{ m}$. The slits are illuminated by light of wavelength $\lambda_0 = 6300 \text{ Å}$ in vacuum. The fringe width is:

Assertion: In Young's double slit experiment,if the wavelength of incident monochromatic light is doubled,the number of bright fringes on the screen will increase.
Reason: The maximum number of bright fringes on the screen is directly proportional to the wavelength of light used.
