उत्तर

Let w, a,I represent the slit width, amplitude and intensity.

`I_(min)/I_(max)=(a_1-a_2)^2/(a_1+a_2)^2=9/25`

`((a_1-a_2))/((a_1+a_2))=3/5`

Or 

`a_1/a_2=4/1`

and 

`w_1/w_2=(a_2)^2/(a_2)^2=16/1`

  • 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).

In Young's double slit experiment, the distance of the 4th bright fringe from the centre of the interference pattern is 1.5 mm. The distance between the slits and the screen is 1.5 m, and the wavelength of light used is 500 nm. Calculate the distance between the two slits.
