In a Young's double-slit experiment,the wavelength of light used is $5000 \, \mathring{A}$ and the fringe width obtained is $1 \, mm$. If the wavelength of light is changed to $6000 \, \mathring{A}$ while keeping the experimental setup unchanged,the new fringe width will be ........ $mm$.

    $1$
  • B
    $0.5$
  • C
    $1.2$
  • D

Young's double-slit experiment is performed in air and then performed in water. How does the fringe width change?

In a Young's double-slit experiment with wavelength $\lambda$,the fringe width is $\beta$. When two glass plates of thicknesses $t_1$ and $t_2$ $(t_1 > t_2)$ and refractive index $\mu$ are placed in the paths of the two light beams respectively,by what distance will the fringe pattern shift?

Two slits separated by a distance of $1\, mm$ are illuminated with red light of wavelength $6.5 \times 10^{-7}\, m$. The interference fringes are observed on a screen placed $1\, m$ from the slits. Find the distance between the third dark fringe and the fifth bright fringe on the same side of the central maxima.

In Young's double slit experiment,the phase difference between the light waves reaching the third bright fringe from the central fringe is: $(\lambda = 6000 \ \mathring{A})$

In Young's double-slit experiment,monochromatic light is used to illuminate two slits $A$ and $B$. Interference fringes are obtained on a screen in front of the slits. Now,if a thick glass plate is placed in the path of light from one of the slits,then:
