In a Young's double-slit experiment,the separation of the two slits is doubled. To keep the same spacing of fringes,the distance $D$ of the screen from the slits should be made

In Young's double slit experiment,the fringe width is $1 \times 10^{-4} \ m$. If the distance between the slit and screen is doubled,the distance between the two slits is reduced to half,and the wavelength is changed from $6.4 \times 10^{-7} \ m$ to $4.0 \times 10^{-7} \ m$,what will be the value of the new fringe width?

Two sources of light of wavelengths $2500 \text{ Å}$ and $3500 \text{ Å}$ are used in Young's double slit experiment simultaneously. Which orders of fringes of the two wavelength patterns coincide?

Two wavelengths of light $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are sent through a Young's double-slit experiment simultaneously. If the third-order bright fringe of $\lambda_1$ coincides with the fourth-order bright fringe of $\lambda_2$,then

$A$ student is asked to measure the wavelength of monochromatic light. He sets up the apparatus as shown in the figure. $S_1, S_2, S_3$ are narrow parallel slits,$L$ is a sodium lamp,and $M$ is a microscope eyepiece. The student fails to observe interference fringes.
