In a Young's double slit experiment,two slits are separated by $2 \, mm$ and the screen is placed $1 \, m$ away. When light of wavelength $500 \, nm$ is used,the fringe separation will be ........ $mm$.

At two points $P$ and $Q$ on the screen in Young's double-slit experiment,waves from slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ have a path difference of $0$ and $\frac{\lambda}{4}$ respectively. The ratio of intensities at $P$ and $Q$ will be

In Young's double-slit experiment,the fringe width is $12 \ mm$. If the entire arrangement is placed in water of refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$,then the fringe width becomes (in $mm$):

$A$ beam of light consisting of two wavelengths $6300 \, \mathring{A}$ and $\lambda \, \mathring{A}$ is used to obtain interference fringes in a Young's double-slit experiment. If the $4^{th}$ bright fringe of $6300 \, \mathring{A}$ coincides with the $5^{th}$ dark fringe of $\lambda \, \mathring{A}$,the value of $\lambda$ (in $\mathring{A}$) is:

The angular width of the central maximum in a single slit diffraction pattern is $60^o$. The width of the slit is $1 \mu m$. The slit is illuminated by monochromatic plane waves. If another slit of same width is made near it,Young's fringes can be observed on a screen placed at a distance $50 \ cm$ from the slits. If the observed fringe width is $1 \ cm$,what is the slit separation distance in $\mu m$ (i.e.,distance between the centres of each slit)?
