    The fringe width for red light is approximately how many times that for violet light in Youngs slit experiment?

    A)  2 times       

    B)  3 times

    C)  Equal         

    D)  1/2 times

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     The fringe width (W) is given by \[W=\frac{D\lambda }{d}\] where\[\lambda \] is wavelength, d the distance between coherent sources, D the distance between source and screen. \[\therefore \] \[\frac{{{W}_{R}}}{{{W}_{V}}}=\frac{{{\lambda }_{R}}}{{{\lambda }_{V}}}\] \[{{\lambda }_{R}}\](red light) is \[6400-7900\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,,\] \[{{\lambda }_{V}}\](violet light) is \[4000-4500\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\] \[\therefore \] \[{{W}_{R}}\approx 2{{W}_{V}}\]
