उत्तर १
The angular width (θ) of the fringe in the double-slit experiment is given by,
`theta=lambda/"d"`
Where
d = Spacing between the slits
Given:
The wavelength of light, λ = 600 nm
The angular width of the fringe,
θ = 0.1° = `pi/1800` = 0.0018 rad
∴ d = `lambda/theta`
d = `(600xx10^(-9))/(18xx10^(-4))`
d = 0.33 × 10−3 m
उत्तर २
Wavelength of light used, λ = 6000 nm = 600 × 10−9 m
Angular width of fringe, θ = 0.1° =` 0.1 xx pi/180 = 3.14/1800 "rad"`
The angular width of a fringe is related to slit spacing (d) as:
θ = `lambda/"d"`
`"d"= lambda/θ`
= `(600 xx 10^(-9))/(3.14 /1800)`
= 3.44 × 10−4 m
Therefore, the spacing between the slits is 3.44 × 10−4 m.

The mica sheet is then removed and the distance between the screen and the slits is doubled. It is found that the distance between the successive maxima now is the same as the observed fringe-shift upon the introduction of the mica sheet. Calculate the wavelength of the monochromatic light used in the experiment.
