$A$ screen is placed at a certain distance from a narrow slit,which is illuminated by a parallel beam of monochromatic light. What will you observe if you scan the screen with the help of a microscope?

  • A
    Equally spaced and equally bright fringes are observed.
  • B
    The whole screen is uniformly illuminated.
  • C
    $A$ bright central fringe bordered on both sides with fringes of rapidly decreasing intensity will be observed.
  • D
    Only one bright fringe is observed at the centre of the screen.

$A$ screen is placed $0.5 \,m$ away from a single slit which is illuminated by a monochromatic light of wavelength $6000 \text{ Å}$. If the distance between the first and third minima in the diffraction pattern on the screen is $3 \,mm$, then the slit width is: (in $\,mm$)

$A$ microwave of wavelength $2.0 \ cm$ falls normally on a slit of width $4.0 \ cm$. The angular spread of the central maxima of the diffraction pattern obtained on a screen $1.5 \ m$ away from the slit,will be: (in $^{\circ}$)

When light is incident on a diffraction grating,the zero-order principal maximum will be:

$A$ circular disc is placed in front of a narrow source. When the point of observation is at a distance of $1 \, m$ from the disc,the disc covers the first $HPZ$ (Half Period Zone). The intensity at this point is $I_0$. The intensity at a point at a distance of $25 \, cm$ from the disc will be:
