Q.

Two slits in Young’s double slit experiment are 1.5 mm apart and the screen is placed at a distance of 1 m from the slits. If the wavelength of light used is 600×10-9 m, then the fringe separation is                [2024]

1 4×10-5 m  
2 9×10-8 m  
3 4×10-7 m  
4 4×10-4 m  

Ans.

(4)

Slit separation distance, d=1.5mm=1.5×10-3m

Slit and screen separation distance, D=1m

Wavelength, λ=600×10-9 m

Fringe separation =λDd=600×10-9×11.5×10-3=4×10-4 m
