The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the separation between the two coherent sources in a Young's Double Slit Experiment (YDSE). We are given the following information: - Wavelength of light, \( \lambda = 6000 \) Å (angstroms) - Distance between the coherent sources and the screen, \( D = 1.0 \) m - Fringe width, \( \beta = 4 \) mm ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert Wavelength to Meters:** The wavelength is given in angstroms. We need to convert it to meters for consistency in units. \[ \lambda = 6000 \, \text{Å} = 6000 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m} = 6 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{m} \] 2. **Convert Fringe Width to Meters:** The fringe width is given in mm. We will convert it to meters. \[ \beta = 4 \, \text{mm} = 4 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m} \] 3. **Use the Formula for Fringe Width:** The formula for fringe width in YDSE is given by: \[ \beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d} \] where \( d \) is the separation between the two coherent sources. 4. **Rearranging the Formula:** We need to rearrange the formula to solve for \( d \): \[ d = \frac{\lambda D}{\beta} \] 5. **Substituting the Values:** Now, we can substitute the values we have: \[ d = \frac{(6 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{m})(1.0 \, \text{m})}{4 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m}} \] 6. **Calculating \( d \):** Performing the calculation: \[ d = \frac{6 \times 10^{-7}}{4 \times 10^{-3}} = \frac{6}{4} \times 10^{-4} = 1.5 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m} \] 7. **Convert \( d \) to mm:** Since we need the answer in mm, we convert meters to mm: \[ d = 1.5 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m} = 0.15 \, \text{mm} \] ### Final Answer: The separation between the two coherent sources is \( 0.15 \, \text{mm} \).
