In Young's double slit experiment, slits are arranged in such a way that besides central bright fringes, there is only one bright fringe on either side of it. Slit separation d for the given condition cannot be (if `lamda` is wavelength of the light used):

A

`lamda`

B

`lamda//2`

C

`2lamda`

D

`3lamda//2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
AB

As path difference `dsintheta=nlamdaimpliesd=(nlamda)/(sitheta)`
As `sinthetalt1` so `dgtnlamda`, where n is an integer therefore `dnelamda` and `dne(lamda)/(2)`
