In the arrangement shown in Fig., slits `S_(1)` and `S_(4)`are having a variable separation Z. Point O on the screen is at the common perpendicular bisector of `S_(1) S_(2)` and `S_(3) S_(4)`.

The minimum value of Z for which the intensity at O is zero is

A

`(3lambda D)/(2d)`

B

`(lambda D)/(2d)`

C

`(lambda D)/(3d)`

D

`(lambda D)/(d)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Intensity at 'O' os zero if `(phi)/(2) = (pi)/(2)`
`phi = (2pi)/(beta)xx(Z)/(2) = pi implies beta , Z = beta = (lambda D)/(d)`

Parallel monochromatic beam is falling normally on two slits S_(1) and S_(2) separated by d as shown in figure. By some mechanism, the separation between the slits S_(3) and S_(4) can be changed. The intensity is measured at the point P which is at the common perpendicular bisector of S_(1)S_(2) and S_(3)S_(4) . When z=(Dlambda)/(2d) , the intensity measured at P is I. and when z is equal to (4Dlambda)/(d) , Intensity is x l. Find x.

In the set up shown in figure, the two slits S_1 and S_2 are not equidistant from the slit S. The central fringe at O is then
