In Young's double-slit experiment,the intensity at a point is $(1/4)$ of the maximum intensity. The angular position of this point is:

  • A
    $\sin ^{-1}(\lambda / d)$
  • B
    $\sin ^{-1}(\lambda / 2d)$
  • C
    $\sin ^{-1}(\lambda / 3d)$
  • D
    $\sin ^{-1}(\lambda / 4d)$

In a Young's double-slit experiment,light of wavelength $5890 \ \mathring A$ is used,and the angular fringe width on the screen is $0.20^\circ$. If the entire apparatus is immersed in water,find the new angular fringe width. (Refractive index of water $\mu = 4/3$) (in $^\circ$)

In a Young's double-slit experiment with wavelength $\lambda$,the fringe width is $\beta$. When two glass plates of thicknesses $t_1$ and $t_2$ $(t_1 > t_2)$ and refractive index $\mu$ are placed in the paths of the two light beams respectively,by what distance will the fringe pattern shift?

The width of the fringe is $2\,mm$ on the screen in a double-slit experiment for light of wavelength $400\,nm$. The width of the fringe for light of wavelength $600\,nm$ will be $..............\,mm$.

In a Young's double slit experiment,$16$ fringes are observed in a certain segment of the screen when light of wavelength $700 \,nm$ is used. If the wavelength of light is changed to $400 \,nm$,the number of fringes observed in the same segment of the screen would be........

$A$ Young's double slit interference arrangement with slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ is immersed in water (refractive index $\mu_w = 4/3$) as shown in the figure. The positions of maxima on the surface of water are given by $x^2 = p^2 m^2 \lambda^2 - d^2$,where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of light in air (refractive index $\mu_a = 1$),$2d$ is the separation between the slits,and $m$ is an integer. The value of $p$ is
