In Young's double slit experiment, the distance of the screen from the two slits in 1m. When a light of wavelength 600nm is allowed to fall on the slits width of the fringes obtained on the screen is 2mm. Calculate the width of the fringe if the wavelength of the incident light is 400nm. Calculate band width in each case if the arrangement is immersed in water of refractive index 1.33.

If the separation between the slits in a Young's double slit experiment is increased. What happens to the fringe width? If the separation is increased too much will the fringe pattern remain detectable?

In Young's double slit experiment, 62 fringes are seen in visible region for sodium light of wavelength 5893 Å. If violet light of wavelength 4359 Å is used in place of sodium light, then what is the number of fringes seen?

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.

Find the intensity at a point on a screen in Young's double slit experiment where the interfering waves of equal intensity have a path difference of lamda/4

Find the intensity at a point on a screen in Young's double slit experiment where the interfering waves of equal intensity have a path difference of lamda/3

In a Young's double slit experiment, the intensity at a point where the path difference is (lamda)/6 ( lamda - wavelength of the light) is 1. If I_(0) denotes the maximum intensity, then I/(I_(0)) is equal to

In a Young's double slit experiment, two narrow vertical slits placed 0.800 mm apart are illuminated by the same source of yellow light of wavelength 589 nm. How far are the adjacent bright bands in the interference pattern observed on a screen 2.00 m away ?
