In a Young's double-slit experiment,interference fringes are obtained on a screen placed at a certain distance from the slits using monochromatic light. If the screen is moved towards the slits by $5 \times 10^{-2} \, m$,the fringe width changes by $3 \times 10^{-5} \, m$. If the distance between the slits is $10^{-3} \, m$,find the wavelength of the light.

The angular width of the central maximum in a single slit diffraction pattern is $60^o$. The width of the slit is $1 \mu m$. The slit is illuminated by monochromatic plane waves. If another slit of same width is made near it,Young's fringes can be observed on a screen placed at a distance $50 \ cm$ from the slits. If the observed fringe width is $1 \ cm$,what is the slit separation distance in $\mu m$ (i.e.,distance between the centres of each slit)?

The path difference between two interfering light waves meeting at a point on the screen is $\left(\frac{87}{2}\right) \lambda$. The band obtained at that point is

Two sources of light of wavelengths $2500 \,\mathring{A}$ and $3500 \,\mathring{A}$ are used in Young's double slit experiment simultaneously. Which orders of fringes of the two wavelength patterns coincide?
