The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the number of fringes observed in the central view zone of Young's double slit experiment with a different wavelength, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Given Data**: - Wavelength 1, \( \lambda_1 = 4000 \, \text{Å} \) - Number of fringes with \( \lambda_1 \), \( n_1 = 60 \) - Wavelength 2, \( \lambda_2 = 6000 \, \text{Å} \) - Number of fringes with \( \lambda_2 \), \( n_2 = ? \) 2. **Fringe Width Formula**: - The fringe width \( w \) in Young's double slit experiment is given by: \[ w = \frac{\lambda D}{d} \] where \( D \) is the distance from the slits to the screen and \( d \) is the distance between the slits. 3. **Total Width of the Screen**: - The total width of the screen \( A \) can be expressed in terms of the number of fringes and fringe width: \[ A = n \cdot w \] - For the first case (with \( \lambda_1 \)): \[ A = n_1 \cdot w_1 = n_1 \cdot \frac{\lambda_1 D}{d} \] 4. **Setting Up the Equation for Both Cases**: - For the second case (with \( \lambda_2 \)): \[ A = n_2 \cdot w_2 = n_2 \cdot \frac{\lambda_2 D}{d} \] - Since the width of the screen \( A \) is the same in both cases, we can set the two equations equal: \[ n_1 \cdot \frac{\lambda_1 D}{d} = n_2 \cdot \frac{\lambda_2 D}{d} \] 5. **Simplifying the Equation**: - The terms \( D \) and \( d \) cancel out, leading to: \[ n_1 \cdot \lambda_1 = n_2 \cdot \lambda_2 \] 6. **Rearranging to Find \( n_2 \)**: - Rearranging gives us: \[ n_2 = \frac{n_1 \cdot \lambda_1}{\lambda_2} \] 7. **Substituting the Values**: - Substitute \( n_1 = 60 \), \( \lambda_1 = 4000 \, \text{Å} \), and \( \lambda_2 = 6000 \, \text{Å} \): \[ n_2 = \frac{60 \cdot 4000}{6000} \] 8. **Calculating \( n_2 \)**: - Simplifying the expression: \[ n_2 = \frac{240000}{6000} = 40 \] ### Final Answer: The number of fringes observed with the wavelength \( 6000 \, \text{Å} \) is \( n_2 = 40 \).
