In Young’s double slit experiment, 12 fringes are observed to be formed in a certain segment of the screen when light of wavelength 600 nm is used. If the wavelength of the light is changed to 400 nm, find the number of fringes observed in the same segment.

In a Young’s double slit experiment, 16 fringes are observed in a certain segment of the screen when light of wavelength 700 nm is used. If the wavelength of light is changed to 400 nm, the number of fringes observed in the same segment of the screen would be:

In a Young's double slit experiment two slits are separated by 2 mm and the screen is placed one meter away. When a light of wavelength 500 nm is used, the fringe separation will be:

In Young's double-slit experiment, 30 fringes are obtained in the field of view of the observing telescope, when the wavelength of light used is 4000 Å . If we use monochromatic light of wavelength 6000 Å , the number of fringes obtained in the same field of view is
