Reason: In Young's double slit experiment,if the fringes are performed with a source of white light,then only black and bright fringes are observed.

Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A) :$ In Young's double slit experiment,the fringes produced by red light are closer as compared to those produced by blue light.
Reason $(R) :$ The fringe width is directly proportional to the wavelength of light.
In the light of above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below $:$

In Young's experiment,obtain the distance between two consecutive bright fringes and two consecutive dark fringes.

Two parallel slits $0.6 \, mm$ apart are illuminated by a light source of wavelength $6000 \, \mathring{A}$. The distance between two consecutive dark fringes on a screen $1 \, m$ away from the slits is ........ $mm$.

View Solution

White light is used to illuminate two slits in a $YDSE$. The separation between the slits is $d$ and the screen is at a distance $D (D >> d)$ from the slits. At a point on the screen directly in front of one of the slits,which of the following wavelengths are missing?

Two slits are $1 \, mm$ apart from each other and the distance of the screen is $1 \, m$. If illuminated with light of wavelength $5 \times 10^{-7} \, m$,the distance between the $3^{rd}$ dark fringe and the $5^{th}$ bright fringe is......$mm$.
