Statement I: Interference pattern is obtained on a screen due to two identical coherent sources of monochromatic light. The intensity at the central part of the screen becomes one -fourth if one of the sources is blocked. Statement II: The resultant intensity is the sum of the intensities due to two sources.

In a double slit experiment using a monochromatic light interference fringes are formed on a screen at a particular distance from the slits. If the screen is moved towards the slits by 5 xx 10^(-2) m then the fringe width changes by 3 xx 10^(-5) m. If the distance between the two slits is 10^(-3) m then determine the wavelength of the light used.
