In Young's double slit experiment,a glass plate is placed before one slit which absorbs half the intensity of light. Under this case:

  • A
    The brightness of fringes decreases
  • B
    The fringe width decreases
  • C
    No fringes will be observed
  • D
    The bright fringes become fainter and the dark fringes have finite light intensity

Two coherent point sources $S_1$ and $S_2$ vibrating in phase emit light of wavelength $\lambda$. The separation between them is $2 \lambda$ as shown in the figure. The first bright fringe is formed at $P$ due to interference on a screen placed at a distance $D$ from $S_1$ $(D >> \lambda)$. Find the distance $OP$.

$A$ double slit experiment is performed with light of wavelength $500\, nm$. $A$ thin film of thickness $2\, \mu m$ and refractive index $1.5$ is introduced in the path of the upper beam. The location of the central maximum will

As shown in the figure,two point coherent sources $S_1$ and $S_2$ are placed at a small distance $d$ apart. The fringes formed on the screen will be .......

The slits in a double-slit interference experiment are illuminated by orange light $(\lambda = 600 \ nm)$. $A$ thin transparent plastic sheet of thickness $t$ is placed in front of one of the slits. The number of fringes $(N)$ shifting on the screen is plotted versus the refractive index $\mu$ of the plastic in the graph shown. The value of $t$ is

If one of the slits of a standard $YDSE$ apparatus is covered by a thin parallel-sided glass slab so that it transmits only one-half of the light intensity of the other, then:
