A beam of light consisting of two wavelengths 500 nm and 400 nm is used to obtain interference fringes in Young's double slit experiment. The distance between the slits is 0.3 mm and the distance between the slits and the screen is 1.5 m. Compute the least distance of the point from the central maximum, where the bright fringes due to both the wavelengths coincide.

A beam of light consisting of two wave lengths 4200 Å and 5600 Å is used to obtain interference fringes in Young's double slit experiment. The distance between the slits is 0.3 mm and the distance between the slits and the screen is 1.5 m. Compute the least distance of the point from the central maximum, where the bright fringes due to both the wavelengths coincide.

A beam of light consisting of two wavelengths 800nm and 600nm is used to obtain the interference fringes in a Young's double slit experiment on a screen placed 1.4m away. If the two slits are separated by 0.28mm , calculate the least distance from the central bright maximum where the bright fringes of the two wavelengths coincide.

In the Youngs double slit experiment, the distance of pth dark fringe from the central maximum

A beam of light consisting of two wavelength 6500 overset@A and 5200 overset@A is used to obtain interference fringes in Young’s double slit experiment. Suppose mth bright fringe due to 6500 overset@A coincides with pth bright fringe due to 5200 overset@A at a maximum distance from the central maximum. Then
