In a Young's double-slit experiment,the slit separation is $0.589 \, mm$ using sodium light. What is the angular separation between the third maximum and the central maximum? $(\lambda = 589 \, nm)$

  • A
    $\sin^{-1} (0.33 \times 10^{-6})$
  • B
    $\sin^{-1} (3 \times 10^{-6})$
  • C
    $\sin^{-1} (3 \times 10^{-8})$
  • D
    $\sin^{-1} (0.33 \times 10^{-8})$

Assertion: $A$ white source of light during interference forms only white and black fringes.
Reason: Width of fringe is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the light used.

How is the interference pattern affected when violet light replaces sodium light?

In a $Young's$ double-slit experiment,light of wavelength $6000 \, \mathring{A}$ is used. If the third dark fringe is formed at point $P$ on the screen,then the path difference $(S_1P - S_2P)$ is ......... $\mu m$.

In Young's double slit experiment,when the wavelength used is $6000 \ \mathring{A}$ and the screen is $40 \ cm$ from the slits,the fringes are $0.012 \ cm$ wide. What is the distance between the slits in $cm$?

In Young's double slit experiment, for the $n^{th}$ dark fringe $(n = 1, 2, 3, \dots)$ the phase difference of the interfering waves in radian will be
