In a Young's double slit experiment,$15$ fringes are observed on a small portion of the screen when light of wavelength $500 \; nm$ is used. Ten fringes are observed on the same section of the screen when another light source of wavelength $\lambda$ is used. Then the value of $\lambda$ is (in $nm$):

In a Young's double slit experiment, the separation between the two slits is $d$ and the wavelength of the light is $\lambda$. The intensity of light falling on slit $1$ is four times the intensity of light falling on slit $2$. Choose the correct choice(s).
$(A)$ If $d = \lambda$, the screen will contain only one maximum
$(B)$ If $\lambda < d < 2\lambda$, at least one more maximum (besides the central maximum) will be observed on the screen
$(C)$ If the intensity of light falling on slit $1$ is reduced so that it becomes equal to that of slit $2$, the intensities of the observed dark and bright fringes will increase
$(D)$ If the intensity of light falling on slit $2$ is increased so that it becomes equal to that of slit $1$, the intensities of the observed dark and bright fringes will increase

The fringe width in a $YDSE$ pattern is $2.4 \times 10^{-4} \, m$ when red light of wavelength $6400 \, \mathring{A}$ is used. How much will it change if blue light of wavelength $4000 \, \mathring{A}$ is used?

$A$ double slit of separation $1.5\, mm$ is illuminated by white light (between $4500\, \mathring{A} - 7000\, \mathring{A}$). On a screen $120\, cm$ away,a coloured interference pattern is formed. If a pinhole is made on this screen at a distance $3.0\, mm$ from the central white fringe,which of the following wavelengths will be absent in the transmitted light? (in $\mathring{A}$)

Two coherent light sources $S_1$ and $S_2$ $(\lambda = 6000 \ \mathring{A})$ are $1 \, mm$ apart from each other. The screen is placed at a distance of $25 \, cm$ from the sources. The width of the fringes on the screen should be (in $, cm$)
