Q.

In Young's double slit experiment, the slits are 2 mm apart and are illuminated by photons of two wavelengths λ1=12000Å and λ2=10000Å. At what minimum distance in mm from the common central bright fringe on the screen 2 m from the slit will a bright fringe from one interference pattern coincide with a bright fringe from the other

m.λ1=n.λ2

m=5 and n=6

So y=5Dλ1d
