Consider the arrangement shown in the figure. The distance D is large compared to the separation d between the slits.
- Find the minimum value of d so that there is a dark fringe at O.
- Suppose d has this value. Find the distance x at which the next bright fringe is formed.
- Find the fringe-width.
उत्तर
From the figure,
Δx = AMO − ANO
Here AM = MO = √[D2 + d2] AND AN = NO = D
=> Δx = 2(AM − AN) = 2 {√[D2 + d2] - D}
For minima at O,
2 {√[D2 + d2] − D} = (n +(1/2)) λ
Solving above equation for d, we get
d = √[Dλ/2]
(b) width of the dark fringe = w = Dλ/d
Now, the location x is given by
x = Dλ/[2√(Dλ/2)]
=> x = d
(c) As x = w/2
=> w = 2x = 2d

ASSERTION (A): In an interference pattern observed in Young's double slit experiment, if the separation (d) between coherent sources as well as the distance (D) of the screen from the coherent sources both are reduced to 1/3rd, then new fringe width remains the same.
