In a Young's double slit experiment,the width of one of the slits is three times the other slit. The amplitude of the light coming from a slit is proportional to the slit width. Find the ratio of the maximum to the minimum intensity in the interference pattern.

  • A
    $1: 4$
  • B
    $3: 1$
  • C
    $4: 1$
  • D
    $2: 1$

In $Y.D.S.E.$ using red and blue lights of wavelengths $7800 \, \mathring{A}$ and $5200 \, \mathring{A}$,the $n^{th}$ red fringe coincides with the $(n + 1)^{th}$ blue fringe. The value of $n$ is:

The fringe width in an interference pattern is $X$. The distance between the sixth dark fringe from one side of the central bright band to the fourth bright fringe on the other side is: (in $X$)

In Young's double-slit experiment,if a metal plate of thickness $t$ is placed in the path of one of the rays,then:

In Young's double-slit experiment,the fringe width on the screen is $0.2 \, mm$. If the wavelength of the light used is increased by $10\%$ and the distance between the two slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ is also increased by $10\%$,the new fringe width will be ....... $mm$.

Assertion: In Young's experiment,the fringe width for dark fringes is different from that for bright fringes.
Reason: In Young's double slit experiment,if the fringes are performed with a source of white light,then only black and bright fringes are observed.
