Two slits are made one millimeter apart ...

Two slits are made one millimeter apart and the screen is placed one metre away. When blue-green light of wavelength 500 nm is used, the fringe separation is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `d = 1 mm = 10^(-3)m D = 1m`,
`lambda = 500 nm = 500 xx 10^(-9)m = 5 xx 10^(-7)m`
Fringe separation = fringe width, `beta = ?`
`beta = (lambda D)/(d) = (5 xx 10^(-7) xx 1)/(10^(-3)) = 5 xx 10^(-4)m = 0.5 nm`
