In Young's double slit experiment,the $8^{th}$ maximum with wavelength ${\lambda _1}$ is at a distance ${d_1}$ from the central maximum and the $6^{th}$ maximum with a wavelength ${\lambda _2}$ is at a distance ${d_2}.$ Then $({d_1}/{d_2})$ is equal to

  • A
    $\frac{4}{3}\left( {\frac{{{\lambda _2}}}{{{\lambda _1}}}} \right)$
  • B
    $\frac{4}{3}\left( {\frac{{{\lambda _1}}}{{{\lambda _2}}}} \right)$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{4}\left( {\frac{{{\lambda _2}}}{{{\lambda _1}}}} \right)$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{4}\left( {\frac{{{\lambda _1}}}{{{\lambda _2}}}} \right)$

In an interference pattern,the fringe width is $\beta$. If the frequency of the source is doubled,the fringe width becomes .....

In a double slit interference experiment, the fringe width obtained with a light of wavelength $5900 \text{ Å}$ was $1.2 \text{ mm}$ for parallel narrow slits placed $2 \text{ mm}$ apart. In this arrangement, if the slit separation is increased by one-and-half times the previous value, then the fringe width is (in $ \text{ mm}$)

If the distance between the first maxima and the fifth minima of a double slit pattern is $7\,mm$ and the slits are separated by $0.15\,mm$ with the screen $50\,cm$ from the slits,then find the wavelength of the light used in $nm$.

On using red light $(\lambda = 6600 \ \text{Å})$ in Young's double slit experiment, $60$ fringes are observed in the field of view. If violet light $(\lambda = 4400 \ \text{Å})$ is used, the number of fringes observed will be

In Young's double-slit experiment,if the distance between the slits is twice the wavelength,the number of possible interference maxima is:
