  • A
    The intensities of both the maxima and the minima increase
  • B
    The intensity of maxima increases and the minima has zero intensity
  • C
    The intensity of maxima decreases and that of the minima increases
  • D
    The intensity of maxima decreases and the minima has zero intensity

As shown in the figure,in Young's double slit experiment,a thin plate of thickness $t = 10\,\mu m$ and refractive index $\mu_1 = 1.2$ is inserted in front of slit $S_1$. The experiment is conducted in air $(\mu = 1)$ and uses a monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda = 500\,nm$. Due to the insertion of the plate,the central maxima is shifted by a distance of $x\beta_0$,where $\beta_0$ is the fringe-width before the insertion of the plate. The value of $x$ is $.............$

If a transparent medium of refractive index $\mu = 1.5$ and thickness $t = 2.5 \times 10^{-5} \, m$ is inserted in front of one of the slits of Young's Double Slit experiment,how much will be the shift in the interference pattern? The distance between the slits is $0.5 \, mm$ and that between slits and screen is $100 \, cm$. (Answer in $cm$)

In Young's double-slit experiment,a glass plate of refractive index $1.5$ and thickness $5 \times 10^{-4} \,cm$ is kept in the path of one of the light rays. Then

In a Young's double slit experiment,each of the two slits $A$ and $B$,as shown in the figure,are oscillating about their fixed center with a mean separation of $0.8 \ mm$. The distance between the slits at time $t$ is given by $d = (0.8 + 0.04 \sin \omega t) \ mm$,where $\omega = 0.08 \ rad \ s^{-1}$. The distance of the screen from the slits is $1 \ m$ and the wavelength of the light used to illuminate the slits is $6000 \ \mathring A$. The interference pattern on the screen changes with time,while the central bright fringe (zeroth fringe) remains fixed at point $O$.
