In a double-slit experiment,the distance between the slits is $d$. The screen is at a distance $D$ from the slits. If a bright fringe is formed opposite to one of the slits,its order $n$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{d}{\lambda}$
  • B
    $\frac{\lambda^2}{dD}$
  • C
    $\frac{D^2}{2\lambda d}$
  • D
    $\frac{d^2}{2D\lambda}$
