उत्तर

The fringe width in Young's double slit experiment is given by
β=λD/d/

whereλ=Wavelength of source

D=Distance between the slits and screen

d=Distance between the slits

βD

The variation of fringe width with distance of screen from the slits is given by the graph shown below:
 

It is a linear graph with slope equal to λ/d. So, for the fringe width to vary linearly with distance of screen from the slits, the ratio of wavelength to distance between the slits should remain constant. Therefore, it is advised to take wavelengths of incident light nearly equal to the width of the slit.

White coherent light (400 nm-700 nm) is sent through the slits of a Young's double slit experiment (see the following figure).

Monochromatic green light of wavelength 5 × 10-7 m illuminates a pair of slits 1 mm apart. The separation of bright lines in the interference pattern formed on a screen 2 m away is ______.


  • Assertion (A): In Young's double slit experiment all fringes are of equal width.
  • Reason (R): The fringe width depends upon the wavelength of light (λ) used, the distance of the screen from the plane of slits (D) and slits separation (d).
