In Young's double slit experiment,the separation $d$ between the slits is $2 \ mm$,the wavelength $\lambda$ of the light used is $5896 \ \mathring{A}$,and the distance $D$ between the screen and slits is $100 \ cm$. It is found that the angular width of the fringes is $0.20^\circ$. To increase the fringe angular width to $0.21^\circ$ (with the same $\lambda$ and $D$),the separation between the slits needs to be changed to ...... $mm$.

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 Young's double-slit experiment,we get $10$ fringes in the field of view using monochromatic light of wavelength $4000 \text{ } \mathring{A}$. If we use monochromatic light of wavelength $5000 \text{ } \mathring{A}$,then the number of fringes obtained in the same field of view is

In the Young's double slit experiment,if the phase difference between the two waves interfering at a point is $\phi$,the intensity at that point can be expressed by the expression:

Consider the following statements in the case of Young's double-slit experiment:
$(1)$ $A$ slit is necessary if we use an ordinary extended source of light.
$(2)$ $A$ slit is not necessary if we use an ordinary but well-collimated beam of light.
$(3)$ $A$ slit is not needed if we use a spatially coherent point source of light.
Which of the above statements is true?
