$A$ biprism experiment is set up as shown. When the upper half area of the biprism is covered with an opaque material,then:

  • A
    Fringes only in the left half of the screen
  • B
    Fringes only in the right half of the screen
  • C
    Intensity of bright bands will be half
  • D
    No fringe pattern is formed

In a biprism experiment,the distance between the two sources is doubled and the distance between the slit and the eyepiece is also doubled. Then the width of the fringe is

What causes changes in the colours of soap or oil films for a given beam of light?

White light reflected from a soap film (Refractive Index $\mu = 1.5$) has a maxima at $600 \ nm$ and a minima at $450 \ nm$ with no minimum in between. Then the thickness of the film in units of $10^{-7} \ m$ is:

In a Fresnel biprism experiment,the two positions of the lens give separations between the virtual slits as $16 \; cm$ and $9 \; cm$ respectively. What is the actual distance of separation (in $cm$)?
