In two separate set-ups of the Young's double slit experiment,fringes of equal width are observed when lights of wavelengths in the ratio $1:2$ are used. If the ratio of the slit separation in the two cases is $2:1$,the ratio of the distances between the plane of the slits and the screen in the two set-ups is

  • A
    $4:1$
  • B
    $1:1$
  • C
    $1:4$
  • D
    $2:1$

In a Young's double slit experiment, the slits are separated by $0.3 \, mm$ and the screen is $1.5 \, m$ away from the plane of slits. The distance between the fourth bright fringes on both sides of the central bright fringe is $2.4 \, cm$. The frequency of light used is $.......... \times 10^{14} \, Hz$.

Sodium light $(\lambda = 6 \times 10^{-7} \ m)$ is used to produce an interference pattern. The observed fringe width is $0.12 \ mm$. The angle between the two wave trains is:

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 $... \mathring{A}$.

If a torch is used in place of monochromatic light in Young's experiment,what will happen?

In a double-slit interference experiment, the fringe width obtained with light of wavelength $5900 \ \mathring{A}$ was $1.2 \ \text{mm}$ for parallel narrow slits placed $2 \ \text{mm}$ apart. In this arrangement, if the slit separation is increased by one-and-a-half times the previous value, then the fringe width is: (in $\text{mm}$)
