Two ideal slits `S_(1)` and `S_(2)` are at a distance `d` apart, and illuninated by light of wavelength `lambda` passing through an ideal source slit `S` placed on the line through `S_(2)` as shown. The distance between the planes of slits and the source slit is `D.A` screen is held at a distance `D` from the plane of the slits. The minimum value of `d` for which there is darkness at `O` is `(dlt lt D)`

A
