In Young's double slit experiment,the separation $d$ between the slits is $2 \ mm$,the wavelength $\lambda$ of the light used is $5896 \ \mathring{A}$,and the distance $D$ between the screen and slits is $100 \ cm$. It is found that the angular width of the fringes is $0.20^\circ$. To increase the fringe angular width to $0.21^\circ$ (with the same $\lambda$ and $D$),the separation between the slits needs to be changed to ...... $mm$.

In Young's double slit experiment,if the wavelength of the light used is doubled and the distance between the two slits is halved,the resultant fringe width becomes $n$ times the initial fringe width. Find the value of $n$.

In Young's double slit experiment,the distance between slits and the screen is $1.0\,m$ and monochromatic light of $600\,nm$ is being used. $A$ person standing near the slits is looking at the fringe pattern. When the separation between the slits is varied,the interference pattern disappears for a particular distance $d_0$ between the slits. If the angular resolution of the eye is $\frac{1}{60}^o,$ the value of $d_0$ is close to......$mm$

In a Young's double-slit experiment,the light beam consists of two wavelengths $6500 \, \mathring{A}$ and $5200 \, \mathring{A}$. The distance between the slits is $2 \, mm$ and the distance between the plane of the slits and the screen is $120 \, cm$. What is the minimum distance from the central maximum where the bright fringes of both wavelengths coincide (in $, cm$)?
