In an interference experiment, the $m^{th}$ bright fringe for light of wavelength $\lambda_1$ coincides with the $n^{th}$ dark fringe for light of wavelength $\lambda_2$. The ratio $\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{2m}{2n-1}$
  • B
    $\frac{2n-1}{2m}$
  • C
    $\frac{m}{n}$
  • D
    $\frac{2n+1}{2m}$

If the separation between slits in Young's double slit experiment is reduced to $\frac{1}{3}rd,$ the fringe width becomes $n$ times. The value of $n$ is

In $Y.D.S.E.$,the separation between the two slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ is $a$,and the screen is at a distance $x$ from the slits. The light source $S$ is moving with velocity $v$ parallel to the line joining $S_1$ and $S_2$ and is at a perpendicular distance $h$ from the plane of the slits. What is the frequency of change in brightness at the central point on the screen?

$A$ beam of light consisting of two wavelengths $6500 \mathring{A}$ and $5200 \mathring{A}$ is used to obtain interference fringes in Young's double-slit experiment. The distance between slits is $2 \text{ mm}$ and the distance of the screen from the slits is $120 \text{ cm}$. What is the least distance from the central maximum where the bright fringes due to both wavelengths coincide (in $\text{ cm}$)?
