उत्तर
the fringe width will decrease
As fringe width is proportional to the wavelength and wavelength of light is inversely proportional to the refractive index of the medium,
Here,
\[\lambda_M = \lambda/\eta\]
\[ \lambda_M = \text{wavelength in medium}\]
\[\lambda = \text{wavelength in vacuum}\]
\[\eta = \text{refractive index of medium}\]
Hence, fringe width decreases when Young's double slit experiment is performed under water.

ASSERTION (A): In an interference pattern observed in Young's double slit experiment, if the separation (d) between coherent sources as well as the distance (D) of the screen from the coherent sources both are reduced to 1/3rd, then new fringe width remains the same.
REASON (R): Fringe width is proportional to (d/D).
