In Young's double slit experiment, the slits are 2 mm apart and are illuminated by photons of two wavelengths 1 = 12000 A and 2 = 10000 A. At what minimum distance from the common central bright fringe on the screen 2 m from the slit will a bright fringe from one interference pattern coincide with a bright fringe from the other ?

  1. 4 mm
  2. 3 m
  3. 8 mm
  4. 6 mm

Answer

(4) 6 mm

Solution

For coincidence of bright fringes: n1 1 = n2 2

⇒ n1n2 = 2 1 = 1000012000 = 56

Minimum: n1 = 5 (for 1), n2 = 6 (for 2)

y = n1 1 Dd

= 5 12000 10-10 22 10-3

= 6 10-3 m

∴ y = 6 mm

In Young's double slit experiment the distance between the slits and the screen is doubled. The separation between the slits is reduced to half. As a result the fringe width

  1. is halved
  2. becomes four times
  3. remains unchanged
  4. is doubled

A parallel beam of light of wavelength is incident normally on a narrow slit. A diffraction pattern is formed on a screen placed perpendicular to the direction of the incident beam. At the second minimum of the diffraction pattern, the phase difference between the rays coming from the two edges of slit is
