In a two-slit experiment with monochromatic light, fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the slits. If the screen is moved by $5 \times 10^{-2} \, m$ towards the slits, the change in fringe width is $3 \times 10^{-5} \, m$. If the separation between the slits is $10^{-3} \, m$, the wavelength of light used is: (in $\text{Å}$)

  • A
    $6000$
  • B
    $5000$
  • C
    $3000$
  • D
    $4500$

In a Young's double slit experiment, the separation between the two slits is $d$ and the wavelength of the light is $\lambda$. The intensity of light falling on slit $1$ is four times the intensity of light falling on slit $2$. Choose the correct choice(s).
$(A)$ If $d = \lambda$, the screen will contain only one maximum
$(B)$ If $\lambda < d < 2\lambda$, at least one more maximum (besides the central maximum) will be observed on the screen
$(C)$ If the intensity of light falling on slit $1$ is reduced so that it becomes equal to that of slit $2$, the intensities of the observed dark and bright fringes will increase
$(D)$ If the intensity of light falling on slit $2$ is increased so that it becomes equal to that of slit $1$, the intensities of the observed dark and bright fringes will increase

$A$ 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 ...... $nm$.

In an interference pattern,the $(n + 4)^{th}$ order blue bright fringe and the $n^{th}$ order red bright fringe coincide at a point. If the wavelengths of red and blue light are $7800 \, \mathring{A}$ and $5200 \, \mathring{A}$ respectively,then the value of $n$ is . . . . . .

In an interference pattern,if the ratio of slit widths is $1:9$,find the ratio of maximum to minimum intensity.
