In a Young's double slit experiment,the fringe width will remain the same if ($D =$ distance between screen and plane of slits,$d =$ separation between two slits,and $\lambda =$ wavelength of light used).

  • A
    Both $\lambda$ and $D$ are doubled.
  • B
    Both $d$ and $D$ are doubled.
  • C
    $D$ is doubled but $d$ is halved.
  • D
    $\lambda$ is doubled but $d$ is halved.

In Young's double slit experiment,the distance between the sources is $1 \ mm$ and the distance between the screen and the source is $1 \ m$. If the fringe width on the screen is $0.06 \ cm$,then $\lambda = \dots \mathring{A}$.

In $YDSE$,$16$ fringes occupy a certain region of space with light of wavelength $6000\,\mathring{A}$. If $24$ fringes occupy the same region,the wavelength of the new light is........$\mathring{A}$.

Young's double slit experiment is first performed in air and then in a medium other than air. It is found that the $8^{th}$ bright fringe in the medium lies where the $5^{th}$ dark fringe lies in air. The refractive index of the medium is nearly:

Light of wavelength $520\, nm$ passing through a double slit produces an interference pattern of relative intensity versus deflection angle $\theta$ as shown in the figure. The separation $d$ between the slits is

$A$ double slit experiment is immersed in water of refractive index $n = 1.33$. The slit separation is $d = 1 \text{ mm}$, and the distance between the slit and the screen is $D = 1.33 \text{ m}$. The slits are illuminated by light of wavelength $\lambda_0 = 6300 \text{ Å}$ in vacuum. The fringe width is:
