    Will not change
  • B
    Will become half
  • C
    Will be doubled
  • D

In Young's double-slit experiment,an interference pattern is obtained on a screen by light of wavelength $6000 \ \mathring A$,coming from coherent sources $S_1$ and $S_2$. At a certain point $P$ on the screen,the third dark fringe is formed. Then the path difference $S_1P - S_2P$ in microns is:

$A$ beam of light consisting of two wavelengths, $650\; nm$ and $520\; nm$, is used to obtain interference fringes in a Young's double-slit experiment.
$(a)$ Find the distance of the third bright fringe on the screen from the central maximum for wavelength $650\; nm$.
$(b)$ What is the least distance from the central maximum where the bright fringes due to both the wavelengths coincide?

In a standard $YDSE$ setup,two sources $S_1$ and $S_2$ of intensities $I_1$ and $I_2$ are placed in front of a screen (figure). The pattern of intensity distribution seen in the central portion is given by the graph. In this case,which of the following statements is true?

In a double-slit experiment,the angular width of the fringes is $0.20^o$ for sodium light $(\lambda = 5890 \ \mathring{A})$. In order to increase the angular width of the fringes by $10\%$,the necessary change in the wavelength is:

In Young's double slit experiment,if the separation between coherent sources is halved and the distance of the screen from the coherent sources is doubled,then the fringe width becomes:
