In Youngs double slit experiment, to increase the fringe width

In Young's double slit experiment, the band width on a screen is double when the screen is moved through 1m. If te distance between the slits is 0.4mm and the wavelength of light used is 600nm , find the band width.

In yound's double slit experiment, the separation between the slits is halved and distance between the slits and screen is doubled. The figure width is

In Young 's double slit experiment the distance between the slits and the screen is doubled the separation between the slits is reduced to half. As a result the fringe width.

A Young's double slit experiment is performed with white light.

In Young's double slit experimental set up, it the wavelength alone is doubled the band width beta becomes,

A beam of light consisting of two wavelengths, 6500 Å and 5200 Å is used to obtain interference fringes in a Young's double slit experiment (1 Å = 10^(-10) m). The distance between the slits is 2.0 mm and the distance between the plane of the slits and the screen in 120 cm. (a) Find the distance of the third bright fringes on the screen from the central maximum for the wavelength 6500 Å (b) What is the least distance from the central maximum where the bright fringes due to both the wavelengths coincide ?

In a Young's double slit experiment, the separation between the slits = 2.0 mm, the wavelength of the light = 600 nm and the distance of the screen from the slits = 2.0 m. If the intensity at the centre of the central maximum is 0.20 W m^-2 , what will be the intensity at a point 0.5 cm away from this centre along the width of the fringes ?
