प्रश्न
A double slit S1 − S2 is illuminated by a coherent light of wavelength \[\lambda.\] The slits are separated by a distance d. A plane mirror is placed in front of the double slit at a distance D1 from it and a screen ∑ is placed behind the double slit at a distance D2 from it (see the following figure). The screen ∑ receives only the light reflected by the mirror. Find the fringe-width of the interference pattern on the screen.

उत्तर
Given:-
Separation between the two slits = d
Wavelength of the coherent light =λ
Distance between the slit and mirror is D1.
Distance between the slit and screen is D2.
Therefore,
apparent distance of the screen from the slits,
\[D = 2 D_1 + D_2 \]
Fringe width, \[\beta = \frac{\lambda D}{d} = \frac{\left( 2 D_1 + D_2 \right) \lambda}{d}\]
Hence, the required fringe width is \[\frac{\left( 2 D_1 + D_2 \right) \lambda}{d}.\]
