In Young's double slit experiment, the sepcaration between the slits is halved and the distance between the slits and the screen is doubled. The fringe width is

A

will not change

B

will become half

C

will be doubled

D

will become four times

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`beta=(Dlambda)/d, beta^(')=2(Dlambda)/(d//2)=(4Dlambda)/d`
`beta^(')/beta=4implies beta^(')=4beta`
