In young's double slit experiment, if the distance between the slits is halved and the distance between the slits and the screen is doubled, the fringe width becomes

A

Will not change

B

Will become half

C

Will be doubled

D

Will become four times

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`beta= (lambdaD)/(d) implies beta.= (lambda xx 2D)/(d//2)= (4lambdaD)/(d) = 4 beta`
