$A$ mixture of light,consisting of wavelengths $590 \ nm$ and an unknown wavelength,illuminates Young's double slit and gives rise to two overlapping interference patterns on the screen. The central maximum of both lights coincide. Further,it is observed that the $3^{rd}$ bright fringe of the known light coincides with the $4^{th}$ bright fringe of the unknown light. From this data,the wavelength of the unknown light is ...... $nm$.

  • A
    $393.4$
  • B
    $885$
  • C
    $442.5$
  • D
    $776.8$

Two coherent sources $O_1$ and $O_2$ in Young's double slit experiment are illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength $5000 \text{ Å}$. If a second order dark fringe is formed at a point $R$ on the screen,the path difference $O_1 R \sim O_2 R$ is (in $\mu m$)

In Young's double slit experiment,the $10^{th}$ order maximum is obtained at a point of observation in the interference pattern for a wavelength $\lambda_1 = 7000 \; \mathring{A}$. If the source is replaced by another one of wavelength $\lambda_2 = 5000 \; \mathring{A}$,what will be the order of the maximum at the same point (in $^{th}$)?

In a Young's double slit experiment,the angular width of a fringe formed on a distant screen is $0.1 \ radian$. Find the distance between the two slits in $\mu m$,if the wavelength of light used is $6000 \ \mathring{A}$.

In Young's double-slit experiment,monochromatic light is used to illuminate the two slits $A$ and $B$. Interference fringes are observed on a screen placed in front of the slits. If a thin glass plate is placed normally in the path of the beam coming from slit $A$,then:

In Young's double-slit experiment,one of the slits is painted such that its intensity is half that of the other slit. Then:
