JEE Main & Advanced Physics Wave Optics / तरंग प्रकाशिकी Question Bank Young's Double Slit Experiment and Biprism

  • question_answer
    In Young's double slit experiment, the slits are 0.5 mm apart and interference pattern is observed on a screen placed at a distance of 1.0 m from the plane containing the slits. If wavelength of the incident light is 6000 Å, then the separation between the third bright fringe and the central maxima is                                            [AMU 1995]

    A)            4.0 mm                                   

    B)            3.5 mm

    C)            3.0 mm                                   

    D)            2.5 mm

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       Separation \[{{n}^{th}}\]bright fringe and central maxima is \[{{x}_{n}}=\frac{n\lambda D}{d}\] So, \[{{x}_{3}}=\frac{3\times 6000\times {{10}^{-10}}\times 1}{0.5\times {{10}^{-3}}}=3.5\,mm.\]
