A slit of width 0.6 mm is illuminated by a beam of light consisting of two wavelengths 600 nm and 480 nm. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen 1.0 m from the slit. Find:
- The distance of the second bright fringe from the central maximum pertaining to the light of 600 nm.
- The least distance from the central maximum at which bright fringes due to both wavelengths coincide.

उत्तर
(i) Distance of 2nd bright fringe from central maximum = `(2λ"D")/"d"`
= `(2 xx 600 xx 10^-19 xx 1)/(0.6 xx 10^-3)`
= 20 × 10−4 m
(ii) If nth bright fringe due to 600 nm coincides with (n + 1)th bright fringe due to 480 nm, then
`("n"λ_1"D")/"d" = (("n" - 1)λ_2"D")/"d"`
Or, nλ1D = (n + 1)λ2D
Or, `"n"/(("n" - 1)) = λ_2/λ_1`
Or, `"n"/(("n" - 1)) = 600/480`
`"n" xx 480 = 600 ("n" - 1)`
`480 "n" = 600 "n" - 600`
600 = `600 "n" - 480 "n"`
600 = `600 "n" - 480 "n"`
600 = `120 "n"`
∴ n = `600/120`
n = 5
So, the least distance from the central maximum = `(5 xx 480 xx 10^-9 xx 1)/(0.6 xx 10^-3)`
= 4 × 10−3 m
= 4 mm

In Young's double slit experiment, using monochromatic light of wavelength λ, the intensity of light at a point on the screen where path difference is λ, is K units. Find out the intensity of light at a point where path difference is `λ/3`.
Can we perform Young's double slit experiment with sound waves? To get a reasonable "fringe pattern", what should be the order of separation between the slits? How can the bright fringes and the dark fringes be detected in this case?
The line-width of a bright fringe is sometimes defined as the separation between the points on the two sides of the central line where the intensity falls to half the maximum. Find the line-width of a bright fringe in a Young's double slit experiment in terms of \[\lambda,\] d and D where the symbols have their usual meanings.
Consider the arrangement shown in the figure. By some mechanism, the separation between the slits S3 and S4 can be changed. The intensity is measured at the point P, which is at the common perpendicular bisector of S1S2 and S2S4. When \[z = \frac{D\lambda}{2d},\] the intensity measured at P is I. Find the intensity when z is equal to
(a) \[\frac{D\lambda}{d}\]
(b) \[\frac{3D\lambda}{2d}\] and
(c) \[\frac{2D\lambda}{d}\]

How will the interference pattern in Young's double-slit experiment be affected if the screen is moved away from the plane of the slits?
Interference fringes are observed on a screen by illuminating two thin slits 1 mm apart with a light source (λ = 632.8 nm). The distance between the screen and the slits is 100 cm. If a bright fringe is observed on a screen at distance of 1.27 mm from the central bright fringe, then the path difference between the waves, which are reaching this point from the slits is close to :
In Young’s double slit experiment, how is interference pattern affected when the following changes are made:
- Slits are brought closer to each other.
- Screen is moved away from the slits.
- Red coloured light is replaced with blue coloured light.
