    In a Young's double slit experiment with slit separation 0.1 mm, one observes a bright fringe at angle \[\frac{1}{40}\,\,rad\] by using light of wavelength \[{{\lambda }_{1}}.\] When the light of wavelength \[{{\lambda }_{2}}\]is used a bright fringe is seen at the same angle in the same set up. Given that \[{{\lambda }_{1}}\] and\[{{\lambda }_{2}}\] are in visible range (380 nm to 740 nm), their values are:

    A) 625 nm, 500 nm

    B) 380 nm, 525 nm

    C) 380 nm, 500 nm

    D) 400 nm, 500 nm

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    For maxima, \[d\,\sin \theta =n\lambda \]
    \[\lambda =\frac{d\theta }{n}\](\[\because \sin \theta \approx \theta \]when\[\theta \]is small)
    \[=\frac{2500}{n}nm\]
    Take\[n=4,5\]for\[\lambda =625nm\]and\[500nm.\]
