A light source, which emits two wavelength `lamda_(1)=400nm` and `lamda_(2)=600nm`, is used in a Young's double slit experiment. If recorded fringe width for `lamda_(1)` and `lamda_(2)` are `beta_(1)` and `beta_(2)` and the number of fringes for them within a distance y on one side of the central maximum are `m_(1)` and `m_(2)` respectively, then

A

`beta_(2)gtbeta_(1)`

B

`m_(1)gtm_(2)`

C

From the central maximum, `3^(rd)` maximum of `lamda_(2)` overlaps with `5^(th)` minimum of `lamda_(1)`

D

The angular separation of fringes of `lamda_(1)` is greater than `lamda_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C

`beta=(lamdaD)?(d),lamda_(1)ltlamda_(2),beta_(2)gtbeta_(1)`
`m_(1)beta_(1)=m_(2)beta_(2)=yimpliesm_(1)gtm_(2)`
`{:(y_(1)=3(lamda_(2)D)/(d)),(y_(2)=4.5(lamda_(1)D)/(d)):}]" here "y_(1)=y_(2)`
`theta=(beta)/(D)=(lamda)/(d)`
Hence A ,B & C are correct choices.
