Yong's double-slit experiment is carried out by using green, red and blue light, one color at a time. The fringe widths recorded are `beta_(G),beta_(R)` and `beta_(B)`, respectively. Then

A

`beta_(G) gt beta_(B) gt beta_(R )`

B

`beta_(B) gt beta_(G) gt beta_(R )`

C

`beta_(R ) gt beta_(B) gt beta_(G)`

D

`beta_(R )gt beta_(G) gt beta_(B)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

We know that, fringe width, `beta=(lambdaD)/(d)`
`or beta prop lambda`
Now, `lambda_(R) lt lambda_(G) gt lambda_(B)`
`therefore beta_(R) gt beta_(G) gt beta_(B)`
