In Young's double-slit experiment,the maximum intensity is $I_0$. If one slit is closed,the new maximum intensity is:

  • A
    $I_0$
  • B
    $I_0/4$
  • C
    $I_0/2$
  • D
    $4I_0$

Two slits are made $10 \ mm$ apart and the screen is placed $1.5 \ m$ away. What is the fringe separation when a wavelength of $7000 \ \mathring{A}$ is used (in $\mu m$)?

In a certain double-slit experimental arrangement,interference fringes of width $1.0 \ mm$ each are observed when light of wavelength $5000 \ \mathring{A}$ is used. Keeping the setup unaltered,if the source is replaced by another source of wavelength $6000 \ \mathring{A}$,the fringe width will be $...... \ mm$.

Interference fringes are observed on a screen by illuminating two thin slits $1 \, mm$ apart with a light source $(\lambda = 632.8 \, nm)$. The distance between the screen and the slits is $100 \, cm$. If a bright fringe is observed on a screen at a distance of $1.27 \, mm$ from the central bright fringe,then the path difference between the waves,which are reaching this point from the slits,is close to $.... \mu m$.

If the path difference of the point on the screen from two coherent sources is constant, what is the shape of the trajectory of the point on the screen?

In Young's double-slit experiment,using light of wavelength $\lambda = 5890 \ \mathring{A}$,the angular width of the fringe is $0.20^\circ$. To increase the angular width by $10\%$,the wavelength must be increased by .......... $\mathring{A}$.
