In an interference experiment,the distance between a maximum and the adjacent minimum is .......

$A$ light source,which emits two wavelengths $\lambda_1=400 \ nm$ and $\lambda_2=600 \ nm$,is used in a Young's double slit experiment. If recorded fringe widths for $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are $\beta_1$ and $\beta_2$ and the number of fringes for them within a distance $y$ on one side of the central maximum are $m_1$ and $m_2$,respectively,then
$(A)$ $\beta_2 > \beta_1$
$(B)$ $m_1 > m_2$
$(C)$ From the central maximum,$3^{\text{rd}}$ maximum of $\lambda_2$ overlaps with $5^{\text{th}}$ minimum of $\lambda_1$
$(D)$ The angular separation of fringes for $\lambda_1$ is greater than $\lambda_2$

In a double-slit interference experiment, the fringe width obtained with light of wavelength $5900 \ \mathring{A}$ 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-a-half times the previous value, then the fringe width is: (in $\text{mm}$)

In Young's double slit experiment,the two slits are $0.6 \; mm$ apart. The interference pattern is observed on a screen at a distance of $80 \; cm$ from the slits. The first dark fringe is observed on the screen directly opposite to one of the slits. The wavelength of light is $\dots \; nm$.

The path difference between two interfering light waves meeting at a point on the screen is $\left(\frac{57}{2}\right) \lambda$. The band obtained at that point is
