How does the fringe width in Young's double slit experiment change when the distance of separation between the slits and screen is double ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Fringe width `y=(lambda D)/(2d)` where D is the distance between slit and screen .
So, if D is double then y is also doubled.
