The Young's double slit experiment is performed in succession using blue light of wavelength $4360 \, \mathring{A}$ and green light of wavelength $5460 \, \mathring{A}$. If the distance of the fourth maximum from the central maximum is $x$,then:

  • A
    $X_{blue} > X_{green}$
  • B
    $X_{blue} < X_{green}$
  • C
    $X_{blue} = X_{green}$
  • D
    $\frac{X_{blue}}{X_{green}} = \frac{5460}{4360}$

Two coherent sources $P$ and $Q$ produce interference at point $A$ on the screen,where a dark band is formed between the $4^{\text{th}}$ bright band and the $5^{\text{th}}$ bright band. The wavelength of the light used is $6000 \text{ Å}$. The path difference between $PA$ and $QA$ is:

In a Young's double slit experiment,the central point on the screen is

In a double slit experiment with monochromatic light,fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the plane of slits. If the screen is moved by $5 \times 10^{-2} \,m$ towards the slits,the change in fringe width is $3 \times 10^{-3} \,cm$. If the distance between the slits is $1 \,mm$,then the wavelength of the light will be . . . . . . $nm$.

$A$ Young's double slit experiment apparatus has slits separated by $0.2 \ mm$ and a screen $60 \ cm$ away from the slits. The whole apparatus is immersed in a liquid medium of refractive index $\mu = \frac{11}{9}$ and the slits are illuminated with green light $(\lambda = 550 \ nm$ in vacuum$)$. Find the fringe width of the pattern formed on the screen. (in $mm$)

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