To solve the problem of finding the minimum order of wavelength \( \lambda_1 = 400 \, \text{nm} \) that overlaps with wavelength \( \lambda_2 = 700 \, \text{nm} \) in Young's Double Slit Experiment (YDSE), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understanding the Condition for Overlap In YDSE, the condition for the bright fringes to overlap is given by the formula: \[ \frac{n_1}{n_2} = \frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1} \] where \( n_1 \) is the order of the fringe for \( \lambda_1 \) and \( n_2 \) is the order of the fringe for \( \lambda_2 \). ...
