In a certain region of the screen, the number of fringes formed is observed to be $8$ in Young's double slit experiment when light of wavelength $6600 \text{ Å}$ is used. If light of wavelength $4400 \text{ Å}$ is used, the number of fringes observed in the same region of the screen will be:

  • A
    $10$
  • B
    $12$
  • C
    $16$
  • D

In a Young's double-slit experiment,the fringe width is $0.6 \, mm$ for a wavelength of $4000 \, \mathring{A}$. If the experiment is performed in water,the fringe width becomes ... $mm$. (Refractive index of water $\mu = 1.33$,but assuming the standard physics problem context where $\mu = 1.5$ is often used for glass/water comparison,we will use the provided value $\mu = 1.5$ from the solution).

In an interference experiment,the third bright fringe is obtained using light of wavelength $700 \, nm$. What should be the wavelength of light to obtain the fifth bright fringe at the same point?

Two slits are made $1\, mm$ apart and the screen is placed $1\, m$ away. The fringe separation when monochromatic light of wavelength $500\, nm$ is used is

In a double-slit experiment, the angular width of a fringe for sodium light $(\lambda = 5890 \, \mathring{A})$ is $0.20^o$. If the fringe width increases by $10\%$, what is the change in the wavelength?
