An interference pattern was made by using red light. If the red light is replaced with blue light,the fringes will become

In Young's double slit experiment,the central bright fringe can be identified

In Young's double slit experiment,the $10^{th}$ order maximum is obtained at a point of observation in the interference pattern for a wavelength $\lambda_1 = 7000 \; \mathring{A}$. If the source is replaced by another one of wavelength $\lambda_2 = 5000 \; \mathring{A}$,what will be the order of the maximum at the same point (in $^{th}$)?

In a double slit experiment,at a certain point on the screen,the path difference between the two interfering waves is $\frac{1}{8}$ of a wavelength. The ratio of the intensity of light at that point to that at the centre of a bright fringe is:
