In a Young's double slit experiment,${I_o}$ is the intensity at the central maximum and $\beta$ is the fringe width. The intensity at a point $P$ distant $x$ from the centre will be

  • A
    ${I_o}\cos \frac{{\pi x}}{\beta }$
  • B
    $4{I_o}{\cos ^2}\frac{{\pi x}}{\beta }$
  • C
    ${I_o}{\cos ^2}\frac{{\pi x}}{\beta }$
  • D
    $\frac{{{I_o}}}{4}{\cos ^2}\frac{{\pi x}}{\beta }$

In a Young's double slit experiment,the slit separation $d$ is $0.3 \text{ mm}$ and the screen distance $D$ is $1 \text{ m}$. $A$ parallel beam of light of wavelength $600 \text{ nm}$ is incident on the slits at angle $\alpha$ as shown in the figure. On the screen,the point $O$ is equidistant from the slits and the distance $PO$ is $11.0 \text{ mm}$. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is/are correct?

In a $YDSE$,bi-chromatic light of wavelengths $400 \, nm$ and $560 \, nm$ are used. The distance between the slits is $0.1 \, mm$ and the distance between the plane of the slits and the screen is $1 \, m$. The minimum distance between two successive regions of complete darkness is......$mm$.

The distance of the $5^{\text{th}}$ dark fringe from the center is $4 \, mm$. If $D = 2 \, m$ and $\lambda = 600 \, nm$,then the distance between the slits is (in $mm$):

In the ideal double-slit experiment,when a glass plate (refractive index $\mu = 1.5$) of thickness $t$ is introduced in the path of one of the interfering beams (wavelength $\lambda$),the intensity at the position where the central maximum occurred previously remains unchanged. The minimum thickness of the glass plate is:

In a certain double-slit experimental arrangement,interference fringes of width $1.0 \ mm$ each are observed when light of wavelength $5000 \ \mathring{A}$ is used. Keeping the setup unaltered,if the source is replaced by another source of wavelength $6000 \ \mathring{A}$,the fringe width will be $...... \ mm$.
