The distance of a point on a screen from two coherent light sources differs by 93 wavelengths. If the path difference is 0.0465 mm, then the wavelength of light used is

A

4000 Å

B

4500 Å

C

5000 Å

D

7500 Å

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`93lamda=0.465mm=465xx10^(-7)m`
`therefore lamda=(465)/(93)xx10^(-7)=5000` Å
