In a Young's double slit experiment, the slits are separated by $0.2 \text{ mm}$ and the screen is placed $2.0 \text{ m}$ away. The distance between the central bright fringe and the third bright fringe is measured to be $1.5 \text{ cm}$. Determine the wavelength of light used in the experiment.

The fringe width in Young's double-slit experiment can be increased if we decrease

The distance between two slits is $3 \ mm$ and the screen is placed at $2 \ m$ distance. When blue-green light of wavelength $500 \ nm$ is used, then the distance between two consecutive fringes will be (in $mm$)?

State two conditions for obtaining sustained interference of light. In Young's double-slit experiment,using light of wavelength $400 \, nm$,interference fringes of width $'X'$ are obtained. If the wavelength of light is increased to $600 \, nm$ and the separation between the slits is halved,find the ratio of the distances between the screen and the slits in the two arrangements if the fringe width remains the same.

Using Young's double slit experiment,a monochromatic light of wavelength $5000 \,\mathring A$ produces fringes of fringe width $0.5 \,mm$. If another monochromatic light of wavelength $6000 \,\mathring A$ is used and the separation between the slits is doubled,then the new fringe width will be ............... $mm$.

The distance between two slits in a double slit experiment is $1 \ mm$. The distance between the slits and the screen is $1 \ m$. If the distance of the $10^{th}$ fringe from the central fringe is $5 \ mm$, then the wavelength of light is $... \mathring{A}$.
