figure shows three equidistant slits illuminated by a monochromatic parallel beam of light. Let `BP_0 -AP_0 = lambda/3` and `Dgtgtlambda`.

(a) Show that d = `sqrt ((2lambdaD)//3)`
(b) Show that the intensity at `P_0` is three times the intensity due to any of the three slits
individually.

A monochromatic light source of wavelength lamda is placed at S. three slits S_(1),S_(2) and S_(3) are equidistant from the source S and the point P on the screen S_(1)P-S_(2)P=lamda//6 and S_(1)P-S_(3)P=2lamda//3 . if I be the intensity at P when only one slit is open the intensity at P when all the three slits are open is-

Consider the situation shown in figure-6.35. The two slits S_(1) and S_(2) placed symmetrically around the central line are illuminated by a monochromatic light of wavelength lambda . The separation between the slits is d. The light transmitted by the slits falls on a screen E_(1) placed at a distance D from the slits.
