    In a double slit experiment, when light of wavelength 400 nm was used, the angular width of the first minima formed on a screen placed 1 m away, was found to be \[0.2{}^\circ \]. What will be the angular width of the first minima. If the entire experimental apparatus is immersed in water? \[({{\mu }_{water}}=4/3)\]                                    [NEET 2019]

    A)  \[0.05{}^\circ \]          

    B)       \[0.1{}^\circ \]

    C)  \[0.266{}^\circ \]         

    D)       \[0.15{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] \[\theta \propto \lambda \]
    \[{{\lambda }_{1}}=400\text{ }nm,{{\theta }_{1}}=0.2{}^\circ ,{{\mu }_{water}}=4/3\]
    \[\frac{{{\theta }_{1}}}{{{\theta }_{2}}}=\frac{{{\lambda }_{1}}}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}\mu =\frac{c}{v}=\frac{{{\lambda }_{1}}}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=\frac{4}{3}\]
    \[\frac{{{\theta }_{1}}}{{{\theta }_{2}}}=\frac{4}{3}\]
    \[{{\theta }_{2}}=\frac{3}{4}({{\theta }_{1}})\]
    \[=\frac{4}{3}(0.2{}^\circ )=0.15{}^\circ \]
