$6300 \mathring A$ wavelength light shines on two narrow slits separated by a distance of $1.0 \ mm$ and illuminates a screen at a distance of $1.5 \ m$ away. When one slit is covered by a thin glass plate of refractive index $1.8$ and the other slit by a thin glass plate of refractive index $\mu$,the central maxima shifts by $6^o$. Both plates have the same thickness of $0.5 \ mm$. The value of the refractive index $\mu$ of the plate is:

  • A
    $1.6$
  • B
    $1.7$
  • C
    $1.5$
  • D
    $1.4$

On placing a thin film of mica of thickness $12 \times 10^{-5} \text{ cm}$ in the path of one of the interfering waves in Young's double slit experiment using monochromatic light,the fringe pattern shifts through a distance equal to the width of a bright fringe. If the wavelength used is $\lambda = 6 \times 10^{-5} \text{ cm}$,the refractive index of mica is:

The figure shows a double-slit experiment. Each slit has a width $W$. $A$ thin glass slab of thickness $\delta$ and refractive index $\mu$ is placed in front of one of the slits. The intensity at the central point $C$ is measured as a function of the thickness $\delta$. At what thickness $\delta$ will the intensity at $C$ be minimum?

$A$ double slit experiment is performed with light of wavelength $500\, nm$. $A$ thin film of thickness $2\, \mu m$ and refractive index $1.5$ is introduced in the path of the upper beam. The location of the central maximum will

$A$ monochromatic light source $S$ of wavelength $440 \,nm$ is placed slightly above a plane mirror $M$ as shown below. The image of $S$ in $M$ can be used as a virtual source to produce interference fringes on the screen. The distance of source $S$ from $O$ is $20.0 \,cm$ and the distance of the screen from $O$ is $100.0 \,cm$ (figure is not to scale). If the angle $\theta = 0.50 \times 10^{-3} \,radians$, then the width of the interference fringes observed on the screen is ............... $mm$.
