Young's double-slit experiment is performed using green light,red light,and blue light,one at a time. The fringe widths recorded are $\beta_G, \beta_R,$ and $\beta_B$ respectively. Then:

  • A
    $\beta_G > \beta_B > \beta_R$
  • B
    $\beta_B > \beta_G > \beta_R$
  • C
    $\beta_R > \beta_B > \beta_G$
  • D
    $\beta_R > \beta_G > \beta_B$

In a Young's double-slit experiment,light of wavelength $5890 \ \mathring A$ is used,and the angular fringe width on the screen is $0.20^\circ$. If the entire apparatus is immersed in water,find the new angular fringe width. (Refractive index of water $\mu = 4/3$) (in $^\circ$)

$A$ student is asked to measure the wavelength of monochromatic light. He sets up the apparatus as shown in the figure. $S_1, S_2, S_3$ are narrow parallel slits,$L$ is a sodium lamp,and $M$ is a microscope eyepiece. The student fails to observe interference fringes. Your first advice to him will be:

In a double slit experiment,the angular width of a fringe is found to be $0.2^{\circ}$ on a screen placed $1\, m$ away. The wavelength of light used is $600\, nm$. What will be the angular width of the fringe if the entire experimental apparatus is immersed in water (in $^{\circ}$)? Take the refractive index of water to be $4/3$.

In Young's double slit experiment, two slits are illuminated with light of wavelength $\lambda$. The line joining $A_1P$ is perpendicular to $A_1A_2$. If the first minimum is detected at $P$, the value of slit separation '$a$' will be (where $D$ is the distance between the source and the screen):
