उत्तर
Given
Separation between the two slits,
\[d = 1 mm = {10}^{- 3} m\]
Wavelength of the light used,
\[\lambda = 5 . 0 \times {10}^{- 7} m\]
Distance between screen and slit,
\[D = 1 m\]
(a) The distance of the centre of the first minimum from the centre of the central maximum, \[x = \frac{\text{width of central maxima}}{2}\]
That is,
\[x = \frac{\beta}{2} = \frac{\lambda D}{2d}...........(1)\]
\[= \frac{5 \times {10}^{- 7} \times 1}{2 \times {10}^{- 3}}\]
\[ = 2 . 5 \times {10}^{- 4} m = 0 . 25 mm\]
(b) From equation (1),
fringe width,
\[\beta = 2 \times x = 0 . 50 mm\]
So, number of bright fringes formed in one centimetre (10 mm) = \[\frac{10}{0 . 50} = 20\]
