`S_(1)` and `S_(2)`. The slitss `S_(1)` and `S_(2)` are identical and source S is placed symmetrically as shown. interference pattern is observed on a screen at a distance D from the centre of slit. The distance between the slits is d.
If the resultant intensity at P is same as that O, then the distance OP can not be

In a young's doule slits experiment, a monochromatic source of wavelength lambda is used to illuminate the two slits S_(1) and S_(2) . The slitss S_(1) and S_(2) are identical and source S is placed symmetrically as shown. interference pattern is observed on a screen at a distance D from the centre of slit. The distance between the slits is d. If the size of slits S_(1) is slightly decreased, then

In a young's doule slits experiment, a monochromatic source of wavelength lambda is used to illuminate the two slits S_(1) and S_(2) . The slitss S_(1) and S_(2) are identical and source S is placed symmetrically as shown. interference pattern is observed on a screen at a distance D from the centre of slit. The distance between the slits is d. If the source is moved up by a very small distance y_(0) , the central maxima will shift
