In Young's double slit arrangement,water is filled in the space between the screen and the slits. Then:

  • A
    fringe pattern shifts upwards but fringe width remains unchanged.
  • B
    fringe width decreases and central bright fringe shifts upwards.
  • C
    fringe width increases and central bright fringe does not shift.
  • D
    fringe width decreases and central bright fringe does not shift.

Young's double slit experiment is performed with monochromatic light. $A$ thin film is introduced in front of one of the slits.

In Young's double slit experiment, two slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ are $d$ distance apart and the separation from slits to screen is $D$ (as shown in figure). Now, if two transparent slabs of equal thickness $0.1 \, mm$ but refractive indices $1.51$ and $1.55$ are introduced in the path of the beam $(\lambda = 4000 \, \mathring{A})$ from $S_1$ and $S_2$ respectively, the central bright fringe spot will shift by $..........$ number of fringes.

$A$ transparent medium of refractive index $\mu = 1.5$ and thickness $t = 2.5 \times 10^{-5} \, m$ is placed in front of one of the slits in a Young's double-slit experiment. By what distance (in $cm$) will the interference pattern shift? The distance between the two slits is $d = 0.5 \, mm$ and the distance between the screen and the slits is $D = 100 \, cm$.

In a Young's double-slit experiment,let $A$ and $B$ be the two slits. Thin films of thicknesses $t_A$ and $t_B$ and refractive indices $\mu_A$ and $\mu_B$ are placed in front of slits $A$ and $B$ respectively. If $\mu_A t_A = \mu_B t_B$,the central maximum will:

Monochromatic light of wavelength $500 \, nm$ is used in Young's double slit experiment. An interference pattern is obtained on a screen. When one of the slits is covered with a very thin glass plate (refractive index $= 1.5$), the central maximum is shifted to a position previously occupied by the $4^{th}$ bright fringe. The thickness of the glass plate is ..................... $\mu m$.
