In a Young's double-slit experiment,white light is used. The distance between the two slits is $b$ and the distance between the slits and the screen is $d$ (where $d >> b$). At the point on the screen directly in front of one of the slits,certain wavelengths are missing. Some of the missing wavelengths are: $(1) \lambda = b^2/d$,$(2) \lambda = 2b^2/d$,$(3) \lambda = b^2/3d$,$(4) \lambda = 2b^2/3d$.

$A$ light of wavelength $500 \, nm$ is incident on a Young's double-slit. The distance between the slits and the screen is $D = 1.8 \, m$ and the distance between the slits is $d = 0.4 \, mm$. If the screen moves with a speed of $4 \, m/s$,with what speed will the first maxima move? (in $mm/s$)

In Young's double-slit experiment,the intensity of light at a point on the screen where the path difference is $\lambda$ is $k$ units; $\lambda$ being the wavelength of light used. The intensity at a point where the path difference is $\lambda/4$ will be:

In Young's double slit experiment, two slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ are $d$ distance apart and the separation from slits to screen is $D$. If two transparent slabs of equal thickness $t = 0.1 \text{ mm}$ but refractive indices $\mu_1 = 1.51$ and $\mu_2 = 1.55$ are introduced in the path of the beam $(\lambda = 4000 \text{ Å})$ from $S_1$ and $S_2$ respectively, the central bright fringe will shift by how many fringes?

The source that illuminates the double-slit in a 'double-slit interference experiment' emits two distinct monochromatic waves of wavelengths $\lambda_1 = 500\,nm$ and $\lambda_2 = 600\,nm$. Each wavelength produces its own interference pattern on the screen. At the central point,where the path difference is zero,the maxima of both patterns coincide. As one moves away from the central region,the two fringe systems gradually go out of step. The combined fringe system becomes completely indistinct when a maximum of one wavelength coincides with a minimum of the other. This happens when the path difference in $nm$ is:

In a Young's double slit experiment,$16$ fringes are observed in a certain segment of the screen when light of wavelength $700 \,nm$ is used. If the wavelength of light is changed to $400 \,nm$,the number of fringes observed in the same segment of the screen would be........
