$A$ light of wavelength $500 \, nm$ is incident on a Young's double-slit. The distance between the slits and the screen is $D = 1.8 \, m$ and the distance between the slits is $d = 0.4 \, mm$. If the screen moves with a speed of $4 \, m/s$,with what speed will the first maxima move? (in $mm/s$)

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $2$

In a Young's double slit experiment,the ratio of the slit widths is $4 : 1$. The ratio of the intensity of maxima to minima,close to the central fringe on the screen,will be

In a $YDSE$,bi-chromatic light of wavelengths $400 \, nm$ and $560 \, nm$ are used. The distance between the slits is $0.1 \, mm$ and the distance between the plane of the slits and the screen is $1 \, m$. The minimum distance between two successive regions of complete darkness is......$mm$.

Two coherent sources $P$ and $Q$ produce interference at point $A$ on the screen,where a dark band is formed between the $4^{\text{th}}$ and $5^{\text{th}}$ bright band. The wavelength of light used is $6000 \text{ Å}$. The path difference between $PA$ and $QA$ is:

Assertion: $A$ white source of light during interference forms only white and black fringes.
Reason: Width of fringe is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the light used.

In a Young's double slit experiment, a small detector measures an intensity of illumination of $I$ units at the centre of the fringe pattern. If one of the two (identical) slits is now covered, the measured intensity will be
