In Young's double slit experiment, the distance of the screen from the two slits in 1m. When a light of wavelength 600nm is allowed to fall on the slits width of the fringes obtained on the screen is 2mm. Calculate the width of the fringe if the wavelength of the incident light is 400nm. Calculate band width in each case if the arrangement is immersed in water of refractive index 1.33.

In a Young's double slit experiment using monochromatic light, the fringe pattern shifts by as certasin distance on the screen when a mica sheet of refractive inde 1.6 and thickness 1.964 micron (1 micron =10^-6m) is introduced in the path of one of the interfering waves. The mica sheet is then removed and the distance between the screen and the slits is doubled. It is found that the distance between the successive maxima now is the same as the observed frige-shift upon the introduction of the mica sheet. Calculate the wavelength of the monochromatic light used in the experiment.

In Young's double slit experiment, the slits are 2 mm apart and are illuminated with a mixture of two wavelength lamda_0 = 750 nm and lamda = 900 nm.
