In a double slit experiment,when light of wavelength $400 \; nm$ was used,the angular width of the first minima formed on a screen placed $1 \; m$ away was found to be $0.2^{\circ}$. What will be the angular width of the first minima if the entire experimental apparatus is immersed in water (in $^{\circ}$)? $(\mu_{water} = 4/3)$

  • A
    $0.266$
  • B
    $0.15$
  • C
    $0.05$

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 $D$ (as shown in figure). Now, if two transparent slabs of equal thickness $0.1 \, mm$ but refractive indices $1.51$ and $1.55$ are introduced in the path of the beam $(\lambda = 4000 \, \mathring{A})$ from $S_1$ and $S_2$ respectively, the central bright fringe spot will shift by $..........$ number of fringes.

In Young's double-slit experiment performed using a monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$,when a glass plate $(\mu=1.5)$ of thickness $t = x \lambda$ is introduced in the path of one of the interfering beams,the intensity at the position where the central maximum occurred previously remains unchanged. The value of $x$ will be..........

If one of the slits of a standard $YDSE$ apparatus is covered by a thin parallel-sided glass slab so that it transmits only one-half of the light intensity of the other, then:

In a Young's double-slit experiment,a glass slab of thickness $1.2 \, \mu m$ and refractive index $1.5$ is placed in front of one slit. Another slab of thickness $t$ and refractive index $2.5$ is placed in front of the other slit. If the position of the central fringe remains unchanged,then the thickness $t$ is equal to $...... \, \mu m$.

In Young's double slit experiment,if the width (aperture) of the source slit $S$ is increased while keeping other parameters constant,then the interference fringes will:
