If the path difference of the point on the screen from two coherent sources is constant, what is the shape of the trajectory of the point on the screen?

$A$ mixture of light of wavelength $590 \, nm$ and an unknown wavelength is incident on the two slits of a Young's double-slit experiment. The central bright fringes of both lights coincide. The $3^{rd}$ bright fringe of the known wavelength coincides with the $4^{th}$ bright fringe of the unknown wavelength. Find the unknown wavelength in $nm$.

In Young's double-slit experiment,the value of $\lambda = 500\, nm$. The value of $d = 1\, mm$ and $D = 1\, m$. Then the minimum distance from the central maximum for which the intensity is half the maximum intensity will be:

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 ............... $mm$.

Using monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$,an experimentalist sets up the Young's double slit experiment in three ways as shown. If she observes that $y = \beta'$,the wavelength of light used is.....$nm$
