For sustained interference fringes in a double-slit experiment,the essential condition$(s)$ is/are:
$1$. Sources must be coherent.
$2$. The intensities of the two sources must be equal.
Here,the correct option$(s)$ is/are:

  • A
    Neither $(1)$ nor $(2)$
  • B
    Both $(1)$ and $(2)$
  • C
    Only $(1)$
  • D

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

$A$ 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 $mm/s$)

The figure shows a double slit experiment where $P$ and $Q$ are the slits. The path lengths $PX$ and $QX$ are $n\lambda$ and $(n + 2)\lambda$ respectively,where $n$ is a whole number and $\lambda$ is the wavelength. Taking the central fringe as zero,what is formed at $X$?

If white light is used in Young's double-slit experiment, then a very large number of coloured fringes can be seen. Which of the following statements is correct regarding the fringe pattern?
