प्रश्न
A beam of light consisting of two wavelengths 600 nm and 500 nm is used in Young's double slit experiment. The silt separation is 1.0 mm and the screen is kept 0.60 m away from the plane of the slits. Calculate:
- the distance of the second bright fringe from the central maximum for wavelength 500 nm, and
- the least distance from the central maximum where the bright fringes due to both wavelengths coincide.
उत्तर
(i) Distance of 2nd bright fringe from the central maximum = `(2λ"D")/"d"`
= `(2 xx 500 xx 10^-9 xx 0.6)/(1 xx 10^-3)`
= 6 × 10−4 m
(ii) `("n"λ_1"D")/"d" = (("n" + 1)λ_2"D")/"d"`
Or, nλ1 = (n + 1)λ2
Or, `"n"/(("n" + 1)) = λ_2/λ_1`
Or, `"n"/(("n" + 1)) = 500/600`
∴ n = 5
So, least distance from central maximum = `(5 xx 600 xx 10^-9 xx 0.6)/(1 xx 10^-3)` = 18 × 10−4 m

A mica strip and a polystyrene strip are fitted on the two slits of a double slit apparatus. The thickness of the strips is 0.50 mm and the separation between the slits is 0.12 cm.

The line-width of a bright fringe is sometimes defined as the separation between the points on the two sides of the central line where the intensity falls to half the maximum.

In Young’s double slit experiment, what is the effect on fringe pattern if the slits are brought closer to each other?
Interference fringes are observed on a screen by illuminating two thin slits 1 mm apart with a light source (λ = 632.8 nm). The distance between the screen and the slits is 100 cm. If a bright fringe is observed on a screen at distance of 1.27 mm from the central bright fringe, then the path difference between the waves, which are reaching this point from the slits is close to :
