In a Fresnel biprism experiment,the two positions of the lens give separations between the virtual slits as $16 \; cm$ and $9 \; cm$ respectively. What is the actual distance of separation (in $cm$)?

The colours observed in thin soap bubbles are due to

White light may be considered to be a mixture of waves with $\lambda$ ranging between $3900\ \mathring A$ and $7800\ \mathring A$. An oil film of thickness $10,000\ \mathring A$ is examined normally by reflected light. If $\mu = 1.4$,then the film appears bright for

$A$ ray of light of intensity $I$ is incident on a parallel glass slab at a point $A$ as shown in the figure. It undergoes partial reflection and refraction. At each reflection,$25\%$ of the incident energy is reflected. The rays $AB$ and $A^1B^1$ undergo interference. The ratio $I_{\text{max}} / I_{\text{min}}$ is (in $: 1$)

When white light is incident normally on an oil film of thickness $10^{-4} \,cm$ and refractive index $1.4$,the wavelength which will not be seen in the reflected system of light is ........... $\mathring{A}$.

$A$ biprism experiment is set up as shown. When the upper half area of the biprism is covered with an opaque material,then:
