In Young's double-slit experiment,the value of $\lambda = 500\, nm$. The value of $d = 1\, mm$ and $D = 1\, m$. Then the minimum distance from the central maximum for which the intensity is half the maximum intensity will be:

  • A
    $2.5 \times 10^{-4}\, m$
  • B
    $2 \times 10^{-4}\, m$
  • C
    $1.25 \times 10^{-4}\, m$
  • D
    $10^{-4}\, m$

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A)$: If Young's double slit experiment is performed in an optically denser medium than air,then the consecutive fringes come closer.
Reason $(R)$: The speed of light reduces in an optically denser medium than air while its frequency does not change.
