In Young's double-slit experiment,if $L$ is the distance between the slits and the screen upon which the interference pattern is observed,$x$ is the average distance between adjacent fringes,and $d$ is the slit separation,then the wavelength of light is given by:

  • A
    $\frac{xd}{L}$
  • B
    $\frac{xL}{d}$
  • C
    $\frac{Ld}{x}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{Ldx}$

At two points $P$ and $Q$ on the screen in Young's double-slit experiment,waves from slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ have a path difference of $0$ and $\frac{\lambda}{4}$ respectively. The ratio of intensities at $P$ and $Q$ will be

In a Young's experiment,when $n$ coherent sources of equal intensity $I_0$ are used,the resultant intensity is $I_1$. When $n$ incoherent sources of equal intensity $I_0$ are used,the resultant intensity is $I_2$. What are the values of $I_1$ and $I_2$?

Two coherent sources of light are placed at points $(-\frac{5a}{2}, 0)$ and $(+\frac{5a}{2}, 0)$. The wavelength of the light is $\lambda = \frac{4a}{3}$. How many maxima will be obtained on a planar circle of large radius with its center at the origin?
