When one of the slits of Young's experiment is covered with a transparent sheet of thickness $4.8 \, mm$,the central fringe shifts to a position originally occupied by the $30^{th}$ bright fringe. What should be the thickness of the sheet if the central fringe has to shift to the position occupied by the $20^{th}$ bright fringe?

  • A
    $3.8$
  • B
    $1.6$
  • C

$A$ flake of glass (refractive index $\mu = 1.5$) is placed over one of the openings of a double slit apparatus. The interference pattern displaces itself through seven successive maxima towards the side where the flake is placed. If the wavelength of the light used is $\lambda = 600 \, nm$,then the thickness of the flake is ........ $nm$.

In an ideal Young's double-slit experiment,a glass plate of thickness $t$ and refractive index $\mu = 1.5$ is placed in the path of one of the interfering beams. If the central bright fringe shifts to the position originally occupied by the first bright fringe (corresponding to wavelength $\lambda$),then the minimum thickness $t$ of the glass plate is:

In a Young's double slit experiment,each of the two slits $A$ and $B$,as shown in the figure,are oscillating about their fixed center with a mean separation of $0.8 \ mm$. The distance between the slits at time $t$ is given by $d = (0.8 + 0.04 \sin \omega t) \ mm$,where $\omega = 0.08 \ rad \ s^{-1}$. The distance of the screen from the slits is $1 \ m$ and the wavelength of the light used to illuminate the slits is $6000 \ \mathring A$. The interference pattern on the screen changes with time,while the central bright fringe (zeroth fringe) remains fixed at point $O$.
$(1)$ The $8^{\text{th}}$ bright fringe above the point $O$ oscillates with time between two extreme positions. The separation between these two extreme positions,in micrometer $(\mu m)$,is. . . . .

In a Young's double slit experiment with light of wavelength $\lambda ,$ the fringe pattern on the screen has a fringe width $\beta .$ When two thin transparent glass (refractive index $\mu$) plates of thickness $t_1$ and $t_2$ $(t_1 > t_2)$ are placed in the path of the two beams respectively,the fringe pattern will shift by a distance:

If one of the slits of a standard $YDSE$ apparatus is covered by a thin parallel-sided glass slab so that it transmits only one-half of the light intensity of the other, then:
