In Young's experiment, light of wavelength 600 nm falls on the double slits separated by 0.1 mm. What is the highest order of maximum intensity in the interference pattern obtained on a screen kept 3 m from the slits? How does the highest order change if the distance of screen from the slits is changed?

To solve the problem of finding the highest order of maximum intensity in Young's double slit experiment, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Given Values We have the following values from the problem: - Wavelength of light (λ) = 600 nm = 600 x 10^-9 m - Distance between the slits (d) = 0.1 mm = 0.1 x 10^-3 m - Distance from the slits to the screen (D) = 3 m ...
