    Two slits 4 mm apart, are illuminated by light of wavelength 6000\[\overset{0}{\mathop{A}}\,\]. What will be the fringe width on a screen placed 2 m from the slits?

    A)  0.12 mm                             

    B)  0.3 mm

    C)  3.0 mm               

    D)         4.0 mm

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Separation of slits\[d=4\,\,mm=4\times {{10}^{-3}}m\] Wavelength\[\lambda =6000\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,=6\times {{10}^{-7}}m\] Distance of screen\[D=2\,\,m\] Fringe width\[\beta =\frac{\lambda D}{d}\]                 \[=\frac{6\times {{10}^{-7}}\times 2}{4\times {{10}^{-3}}}\]                 \[=3\times {{10}^{-4}}m\]                 \[=0.3\,\,mm\]
