Write the distinguishing features between a diffraction pattern due to a single slit and the interference fringes produced in Young's double slit experiment.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a)
(b) `y_(n)=(nlambdaD)/(d)`
`d=(nlambdaD)/(y_(n))`
`=(1xx500xx10^(-9)xx1)/(2.5xx10^(-3))m`
`=2xx10^(-4)m(=0.2mm)`
