Two ideal slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ are at a distance $d$ apart and are illuminated by light of wavelength $\lambda$ passing through an ideal source slit $S$ placed on the line through $S_2$ as shown. The distance between the plane of the slits and the source slit is $D$. $A$ screen is held at a distance $D$ from the plane of the slits. The minimum value of $d$ for which there is darkness at $O$ is

In an interference experiment,let $D$ be the distance between the slit and the eyepiece. When the distance between two virtual sources is changed from $d_{A}$ to $d_{B}$,the fringe width changes from $Z_{A}$ to $Z_{B}$. The ratio $Z_{A} / Z_{B}$ is:

In Young's double-slit experiment,the position of the $5^{\text{th}}$ bright fringe from the central maximum is $5\,cm$. The distance between the slits and the screen is $1\,m$ and the wavelength of the monochromatic light used is $600\,nm$. The separation between the slits is $........\mu m$.

The figure shows a schematic diagram of Young's Double Slit Experiment. Identify the correct statement$(s)$ if the source slit $S$ is moved closer to the slits $S_1$ and $S_2$,i.e.,the distance $\ell$ decreases.

In the figure, Young's double-slit experiment is shown. $Q$ is the position of the first bright fringe on the right side of $O$. $P$ is the $11^{th}$ fringe on the other side, as measured from $Q$. If the wavelength of the light used is $6000 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m}$, then $S_1B$ will be equal to:
