उत्तर

Fringe width is the distance between two consecutive dark or bright fringes,

so we have fringe width `=(lambdaD)/d`. 

If the whole apparatus is immersed in water and refractive index of water is then,

`v/c =1/n`              =      Where v is velocity of light in water

`=> n =(vlambda)/(vlambda_omega)  lambda =`   wavelength of light in air

`=> n =(vlambda)/(lambda_omega)  lambda_omega =`   wavelength of light in wetar

`lambda_omega = lambda/n     v `         = frequency of light in air and water

Hence

`beta_omega =(lambda_omegad)/D =(lambda) =(lamdad)/(nD)`

`beta_omega = 1/n beta`

This shows fringe width will be reduced by the factor of the refractive index of water.

The ratio of the intensities at minima to the maxima in the Young's double slit experiment is 9 : 25. Find the ratio of the widths of the two slits.


A thin transparent sheet is placed in front of a Young's double slit. The fringe-width will _____________ .


Two transparent slabs having equal thickness but different refractive indices µ1 and µ2are pasted side by side to form a composite slab. This slab is placed just after the double slit in a Young's experiment so that the light from one slit goes through one material and the light from the other slit goes through the other material. What should be the minimum thickness of the slab so that there is a minimum at the point P0 which is equidistant from the slits?


In Young’s double-slit experiment, using monochromatic light, fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the slits. If the screen is moved by 5 x 10-2 m towards the slits, the change in the fringe width is 3 x 10-5 m. If the distance between the two slits is 10-3 m, calculate the wavelength of the light used.


Wavefront is ______.


In Young's double slit experiment shown in figure S1 and S2 are coherent sources and S is the screen having a hole at a point 1.0 mm away from the central line. White light (400 to 700 nm) is sent through the slits. Which wavelength passing through the hole has strong intensity?


Consider a two-slit interference arrangement (Figure) such that the distance of the screen from the slits is half the distance between the slits. Obtain the value of D in terms of λ such that the first minima on the screen falls at a distance D from the centre O.


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 ______.


In Young's double-slit experiment, the separation between the two slits is d and the distance of the screen from the slits is 1000 d. If the first minima fall at a distance d from the central maximum, obtain the relation between d and λ.


In Young’s double slit experiment, how is interference pattern affected when the following changes are made:

  1. Slits are brought closer to each other.
  2. Screen is moved away from the slits.
  3. Red coloured light is replaced with blue coloured light.
