Two sources of light of wavelengths $2500 \,\mathring{A}$ and $3500 \,\mathring{A}$ are used in Young's double slit experiment simultaneously. Which orders of fringes of the two wavelength patterns coincide?

  • A
    $3^{rd}$ order of $1^{st}$ source and $5^{th}$ of the $2^{nd}$
  • B
    $7^{th}$ order of $1^{st}$ source and $5^{th}$ of the $2^{nd}$
  • C
    $5^{th}$ order of $1^{st}$ source and $3^{rd}$ of the $2^{nd}$
  • D
    $5^{th}$ order of $1^{st}$ source and $7^{th}$ of the $2^{nd}$

$A$ beam of light consisting of two wavelengths, $650\; nm$ and $520\; nm$, is used to obtain interference fringes in a Young's double-slit experiment.
$(a)$ Find the distance of the third bright fringe on the screen from the central maximum for wavelength $650\; nm$.
$(b)$ What is the least distance from the central maximum where the bright fringes due to both the wavelengths coincide?

In the ideal double-slit experiment,when a glass plate (refractive index $\mu = 1.5$) of thickness $t$ is introduced in the path of one of the interfering beams (wavelength $\lambda$),the intensity at the position where the central maximum occurred previously remains unchanged. The minimum thickness of the glass plate is:

In Young's double slit experiment,the slits are $0.5 \, mm$ apart and the interference is observed on a screen at a distance of $100 \, cm$ from the slits. It is found that the $9^{th}$ bright fringe is at a distance of $7.5 \, mm$ from the $2^{nd}$ dark fringe on the same side of the central fringe. The wavelength of the light used is ..... $\mathring{A}$.

The angular width of the central maximum in a single slit diffraction pattern is $60^o$. The width of the slit is $1 \mu m$. The slit is illuminated by monochromatic plane waves. If another slit of same width is made near it,Young's fringes can be observed on a screen placed at a distance $50 \ cm$ from the slits. If the observed fringe width is $1 \ cm$,what is the slit separation distance in $\mu m$ (i.e.,distance between the centres of each slit)?
