If a torch is used in place of monochromatic light in Young's experiment what will happen?

A

Only bright fringes will appear

B

Fringes will occur as from monochromatic light

C

No fringes will appear

D

Fringe will appear for a moment then it will disappear

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The maximum intensity in young's double-slit experiment is I_(0) . Distance between the slit is d = 5 lambda , where lambda is the wavelength of monochromatic light used in the experiment. What will be the intensity of light in front of one of the slits on a screen at a distance D = 10 d ?

If the monochromatic source in Young's double slit experiment is white light, then

A parallel beam of monochromatic light is used in a Young's double slit experiment. The slits are separated by a distance d and the screen is placed parallel to the plane of the slits. Show that if the incident beam makes an angle theta=sin^-1(lamda/(2d)) with the normal to the plane of the slits, there will be a dark fringe at the centre Po of the pattern.

If instead of monochromatic light, white light is used in Young's double-slit experiment, then

In Young's double slit experiment, 62 fringes are seen in visible region for sodium light of wavelength 5893Å . If violet light of wavelength 4358Å , is used in place of sodium light, then number of fringes seen will be

Assertion : When a thin transparent sheet is placed in front of both the slits of Young's experiment, the fringe width will remains same. Reason : In Young's experiment, the fringe width is directly proportional to wavelength of the source used.
