In the arrangement shown, S is a point source of monochromatic light. S1 and S2 are two slits located sym- metrically with respect to the source with separation between them` d_(1)`. Parallel to this slit plane there are two more slits (S3 and S4) at separation` d_(2)`. These slits are also symmetrically located with respect to S. A screen is at a distance `L_(2)` from this slit plane. How does the intensity on the screen change with y and `d_(1)`?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`"Intensity" propcos^(2)((pid_(1)d_(2))/(2lambdaL_(1)))cos^(2)((pid_(2)y)/(2lambdaL_(2)))`

In the arrangement shown in the figure, S1 and S2 are two parallel slits at a separation d. There is a screen at a distance D (gtgtd) from the slits. Two point sources A1 and A2 have been placed symmetrically with respect to the slits at a large distance with ltltA_(1)OO_(1)=ltltA_(2)OO_(1)=Deltatheta . The sources are monochromatic giving out light of wavelength l but they are incoherent. Write the intensity of light at a point P on the screen as a function of y. Take I_(0) to be maximum intensity on the screen when one of the two sources (A1 and A2) is switched on. Assume y to be small.
