To solve the problem, we need to find the least distance from the central maxima where bright fringes due to two different wavelengths coincide in a Young's Double Slit Experiment (YDSE). Let's break down the steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for fringe positions In YDSE, the position of the bright fringes is given by: \[ y_n = \frac{n \lambda D}{d} \] where: - \( y_n \) = position of the nth bright fringe, - \( n \) = order of the fringe (1, 2, 3,...), ...
