In the YDSE conducted with white light (...

In the YDSE conducted with white light (4000Å-7000Å), consider a point `P_(1)` on the screen at `y_(1)` = 0.2mm. Determine the wavelengths which form maxima at these points :

A

(a)`3000 Å`

B

(b)`4000 Å`

C

(c)`5000Å`

D

(d)`7000Å`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The optical path difference at `P_(1)` is
`P_(1) = (d y_(1))/(D) = ((10)/(4000)) (0.2) = 5 xx 10^(-4) mm= 5000Å`
`therefore` The wavelength which forms maxima at P is `lamda = 5000Å`

In YDSE's experiment performed in a medium of refractive index (4/3), a light of 60 nm wavelength is falling ono the slits having 0.45 mm separation.t he lower slit S_(2) is covered by a thin glass sheet of thickness 10.4 mum and refractive index 1.5 the interference pattern is observed on a screen palced 1.5m from the slits as shown int hef ignore dispersion. Q. If white light of range 400-700 nm has replaced 600 nm light, one of the wavelengths of light that forms maxima exactly at point O wll be:

A monochromatic beam of light of 6000 Å is used in YDSE set-up. The two slits are covered with two thin films of equal thickness t but of different refractive indices as shown in figure. Considering the intensity of the incident beam on the slits to be I_(0) , find the point on the screen at which intensity is I_(0) and is just above the central maxima. (Assume that there is no change in intensity of the light after passing through the films.) Consider t = 6 mu m, d = 1 mm, and D = 1 m, where d and D have their usual meaning. Give your answer in mm.

In the Young's double slit experiment, the spacing between two slits is 0.1mm . If the screen is kept at a distance of 1.0m from the slits and the wavelength of ligth is 5000Å , then the fringe width is

YDSE is carried with two thin sheets of thickness 10.4 mu m each and refractive index mu_1 = 1.52 and mu_2 = 1.40 covering the slits S_1 and S_2 respectively. If white light of range 400nm to 780 nm is used, then which wavelength will form maxima exactly at point O, the centre of the screen

In a YDSE using monochromatic visible light, the distance between the plate of slits and the screen is 1.7 m. At point P on the screen which is directly in front of the upper slit, maximum path is observed. Now, the screen is moved 50 cm closer to the plane of slits. Point P now lies between third and fouth minima above the central maxima and the intensity at P in one-fourth of the maxima intensity on the screen. ltbr. Find the wavelength of light if the separation of slits is 2 mm.

Statement-1: if white light is used in YDSE, then the central bright fringe will be white. Statement-2: In case of white light used in YDSE all the wavelengths produce their zero order maxima at the same position.

A double slit of separation 1.5 mm is illuminated by white light (between 4000 and 8000 Å ). On a screen 120 cm away colored interference pattern is formed. If a pinhole is made on this screen at a distance of 3.0 mm from the central white fringe, some wavelengths will be absent in the transimitted light. Find the second longest wavelength (in Å ) which will be absent in the transmitted light.

In YDSE, the two slits are separated by 0.1 mm and they are 0.5 m from the screen. The wavelength of light used is 5000 Å. Find the distance between 7th maxima and 11 th minima on the upper side of screen.
