This question has Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$. Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement-$1$: In Young's double slit experiment,the number of fringes observed in the field of view is small with longer wavelength of light and is large with shorter wavelength of light.
Statement-$2$: In the double slit experiment,the fringe width depends directly on the wavelength of light.

In a Young's double slit experiment with slit separation $0.1\, mm$,one observes a bright fringe at angle $\frac{1}{40}\, rad$ by using light of wavelength $\lambda_1$. When the light of wavelength $\lambda_2$ is used,a bright fringe is seen at the same angle in the same setup. Given that $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are in the visible range ($380\, nm$ to $740\, nm$),their values are:

In a Young's double slit experiment,two slits are separated by $2 \, mm$ and the screen is placed $1 \, m$ away. When light of wavelength $500 \, nm$ is used,the fringe separation will be ........ $mm$.

In Young's double slit experiment,the two slits are $0.6 \; mm$ apart. The interference pattern is observed on a screen at a distance of $80 \; cm$ from the slits. The first dark fringe is observed on the screen directly opposite to one of the slits. The wavelength of light is $\dots \; nm$.

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:
