In a Young.s slit experiment, the slits are separated by 0.24 mm and the screen is kept 160 cm from the slits. If the fringe width is measured to be 0.4 cm, calculate the wavelength of light used experiment. What would be the new value of the .fringe width., if for the same set up or the same wavelength light, the screen is moved, .inwards., i.e., towards the slits by 40 cm?
