प्रश्न
In a double slit interference experiment, the separation between the slits is 1.0 mm, the wavelength of light used is 5.0 × 10−7 m and the distance of the screen from the slits is 1.0m. (a) Find the distance of the centre of the first minimum from the centre of the central maximum. (b) How many bright fringes are formed in one centimetre width on the screen?
उत्तर
Given
Separation between the two slits,
\[d = 1 mm = {10}^{- 3} m\]
Wavelength of the light used,
\[\lambda = 5 . 0 \times {10}^{- 7} m\]
Distance between screen and slit,
\[D = 1 m\]
(a) The distance of the centre of the first minimum from the centre of the central maximum, \[x = \frac{\text{width of central maxima}}{2}\]
That is,
\[x = \frac{\beta}{2} = \frac{\lambda D}{2d}...........(1)\]
\[= \frac{5 \times {10}^{- 7} \times 1}{2 \times {10}^{- 3}}\]
\[ = 2 . 5 \times {10}^{- 4} m = 0 . 25 mm\]
(b) From equation (1),
fringe width,
\[\beta = 2 \times x = 0 . 50 mm\]
So, number of bright fringes formed in one centimetre (10 mm) = \[\frac{10}{0 . 50} = 20\]

In a Young's double slit experiment, using monochromatic light, the fringe pattern shifts by a certain distance on the screen when a mica sheet of refractive index 1.6 and thickness 1.964 micron (1 micron = 10−6 m) is introduced in the path of one of the interfering waves. The mica sheet is then removed and the distance between the screen and the slits is doubled. It is found that the distance between the successive maxima now is the same as the observed fringe-shift upon the introduction of the mica sheet. Calculate the wavelength of the monochromatic light used in the experiment.
