The difference in the number of wavelengths, when yellow light propagates through air and vacuum columns of the same thickness, is $1$. The thickness of the air column is (Refractive index of air $\mu_a = 1.0003$, Wavelength of yellow light in vacuum $\lambda_0 = 6000 \text{ Å}$)

Interference fringes are produced on the screen by using two light sources of intensities $I$ and $9I$. The phase difference between the beams is $\pi / 2$ at point $P$ and $\pi$ at point $Q$ on the screen. The difference between the resultant intensities at points $P$ and $Q$ is $(\cos 90^{\circ}=0, \cos 180^{\circ}=-1)$. (in $I$)

Two coherent sources of light interfere and produce a fringe pattern on a screen. For the central maximum,the phase difference between the two waves will be,

Two coherent sources of light interfere. The intensity ratio of two sources is $1:4$. For this interference pattern,if the value of $\frac{I_{\max} + I_{\min}}{I_{\max} - I_{\min}}$ is equal to $\frac{2\alpha + 1}{\beta + 3}$,then the value of $\frac{\alpha}{\beta}$ will be:

Two point sources $S_1$ and $S_2$ separated by a distance $10 \mu m$ emit light waves of wavelength $4 \mu m$ in phase. $A$ circular wire of radius $40 \mu m$ is placed around the sources as shown in the figure,where $O$ is the centre of the circle and $OS_1 = OS_2$. Then:
