A thin mica sheet of thickness `2xx10^-6m` and refractive index `(mu=1.5)` is introduced in the path of the first wave. The wavelength of the wave used is `5000Å`. The central bright maximum will shift

A

2 fringes upward

B

2 fringes downward

C

10 fringes upward

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Shift= `(beta)/(lambda)(mu-1)t= (betaxx(1.5-1) xx 10^(-6) xx 2)/((5000 xx 10^(-10)))= 2beta` i.e. 2 fringes upwards

In Young's double slit experiment, using monochromatic light, the fringe patternn shifts by a certain distance on the screen, when a transparent sheet of thickness 't' and refractive index mu is introduced in the path of one of the interfering waves. the 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 (or minima) now is the samme as the observed fringe shift when the sheet was introduced. what is the wavelength of light used?
