In a Fresnel's biprism experiment,a mica sheet of refractive index $1.5$ and thickness $6 \times 10^{-6} \ m$ is placed in the path of one of the interfering beams. As a result,the central fringe shifts by a distance equal to $5$ fringe widths. Find the wavelength of light in $\mathring{A}$.

  • A
    $4000$
  • B
    $6000$
  • C
    $5000$
  • D
    $2000$

In a biprism experiment, the $4^{th}$ dark band is formed opposite to one of the slits. The wavelength of light used is (where $D$ = distance between source and screen, $d$ = distance between the slits).

Assertion: At the first glance,the top surface of the Morpho butterfly's wing appears a beautiful blue-green. If the wind moves the colour changes.
Reason: Different pigments in the wing reflect light at different angles.

Choose the correct statement.

$A$ thin slice is cut out of a glass cylinder along a plane parallel to its axis. The slice is placed on a flat glass plate with the curved surface downwards. Monochromatic light is incident normally from the top. The observed interference fringes from this combination do not follow one of the following statements.

$A$ ray of light of intensity $I$ is incident on a parallel glass slab at a point $A$ as shown in the figure. It undergoes partial reflection and refraction. At each reflection,$25\%$ of the incident energy is reflected. The rays $AB$ and $A^1B^1$ undergo interference. The ratio $I_{\text{max}} / I_{\text{min}}$ is (in $: 1$)
