Two sources of light of wavelengths $2500 \text{ Å}$ and $3500 \text{ Å}$ 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 $1^{st}$ and $5^{th}$ order of $2^{nd}$
  • C
    $5^{th}$ order of $1^{st}$ and $3^{rd}$ order of $2^{nd}$
  • D
    $5^{th}$ order of $1^{st}$ and $7^{th}$ order of $2^{nd}$

In a Young's double-slit experiment,two slits act as coherent sources of waves of equal wavelength $\lambda$ and amplitude $A$. In another experiment,the two slits are arranged to act as incoherent sources of waves of the same amplitude and wavelength. If the intensity at the central point of the screen in the first case is $I_1$ and in the second case is $I_2$,then the ratio $I_1/I_2$ is:

In a Young's double-slit experiment,the separation of the two slits is doubled. To keep the same spacing of fringes,the distance $D$ of the screen from the slits should be made

In $YDSE$,the $Y$-coordinates of the central maxima and the $10^{th}$ maxima are $2 \, cm$ and $5 \, cm$ respectively. When the $YDSE$ apparatus is immersed in a liquid of refractive index $1.5$,what will be the corresponding $Y$-coordinates?
