In Young's double-slit experiment,monochromatic light is used to illuminate the two slits $A$ and $B$. Interference fringes are observed on a screen placed in front of the slits. If a thin glass plate is placed normally in the path of the beam coming from slit $A$,then:

  • A
    The fringes will disappear.
  • B
    The fringe width will increase.
  • C
    The fringe width will decrease.
  • D
    There will be no change in fringe width.

In Young's double slit experiment,when the wavelength used is $6000 \ \mathring{A}$ and the screen is $40 \ cm$ from the slits,the fringes are $0.012 \ cm$ wide. What is the distance between the slits in $cm$?

In two different Young's double-slit experiments,the fringe width is the same when the ratio of wavelengths is $1:2$. If the ratio of the distance between the slits in the two cases is $2:1$,then the ratio of the distance between the slits and the screen in the two experiments is:

In Young's double-slit experiment, light of wavelength $4000 \, Å$ is used to produce bright fringes of width $0.6 \, mm$ at a distance of $2 \, m$ from the slits. If the whole apparatus is immersed in a liquid of refractive index $1.5$, what will be the new fringe width in $mm$?
