A monochromatic beam of bright of light ...

A monochromatic beam of bright of light of wavelength `5000 Å` is used in Young's double slit experiment. If one of the slits is covered by a transparent sheet of thikness `1.4 xx 10^(-5) m`, having refractive index of its medium 1.25. Then the number of fringes shifted is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
7

Number of fringe is
`t ((mu - 1) D// d)/(D lambda // d) = (mu - 1)/(lambda) = 7`
